Also put a white reflective tape over the amber in the front
Sheet of reflective vinyl from local construction and road sign shop was $6 for 12"x"36.
Pic without and with flash
Got some reflective blue vinyl, from the same shop as where I got the white from, to cover my bowtie.
I dont know why but one of my favorite mods lol

I added switchbacks and yellow coated bulbs to the fogs.
I later got plugs from a salvage yard and deleted the drls and in place wired in another set for parking lights and turn signals for a whole row of switchbacks.

Damn I'm liking this thread. I like the reflective vinyl, might have to look into some this weekend and think of ways to add/use it. Might just buy and keep around for a future project.

Thanks guys.
So i plastidipped my dome and door lights black. With the leds I didnt need a bright white or chrome background. so I wanted a dark smoke look without tinting the actual lens and it worked.
What gave me the idea is i went to take the door lights off to put in leds the damn lens broke off of all four of them. So I decided to paint them and seal them back together.
Took the covers off the lens and painted those black for an even darker look.
Make sure you scrape off the contacts for the light bulbs.
Put a small piece of aluminum tape on the red side so its still reflective for other passing drivers

Map lights white. (Turned on individually these are dim, will be replacing them with error free bulbs)
Dome lights blue
Yeah yeah I know she's dirty. Getting ready for a spring cleaning. Also did the footwell light mod (worth it)
