it a model paint we get local up here in the NW. here is a pic of mine





this was the first set i ever did(mine) and i tried painting the back of the turn signal instead of the lense, it makes it unique but for all other sets i have done we paint the lens to give it the right look and to make it reflect better. PM me for more details and ill help you out

DO NOT i repeat DO NOT do them yourself if you are unsure of doing it. i once did mine on my rsx back in the days and it came out very ****ty. either keep trying to get ahold of evodave or just buy some JDM headlamps

its not that hard to do tails either you just have to know what your doing i've done 4 sets of heads and 5-6 sets of tails and they all turned out great but of course i practiced on my own before doing others.

Thats pretty normal that guys too busy to handle everyone on here. If u search in the installation help forum i think theres a guy there that did his own headlight mods...
