So, after I had posted that one thread a few days ago about making Silver turn signal bulbs, I remembered I had a can of Smoke Paint made by a company named AUG. The rest is in Japanese, so I cant tell you what the directions were, but this is what I did:
First: Removed front turn signal bulbs from near the fogs
Second: Wiped them down with rubbing alcohol to promote adhesion
Third: Sprayed the bulbs
Fourth: Dried them quicker with a hair dryer since it was starting to rain and I needed to get them back in ASAP
Fifth: Reinstalled
Here are a few picture. The orange color that could be seen in the housing during the day is now gone. The lights are still plenty bright as well.
***I also ordered and just installed a set of SPP 80W Super White bulbs for my low beams since after 16 months the Silverstars just went. My fogs which I have had for about 14 months now are also 80W SPP (yellow though) and I have had no trouble with the harness or housing getting too hot. Pictures of that can be seen using the link in my signature. I will take pictures of them when I can. Here is a link to SPP
