Default Chech This Out!

Made a blue lens and mounted it in place of the yellow one.

FYI, you (and your friend) can easily be pulled over for having those blue tints/lights, since the police are the only cars that can have them.

yes i know i can get pulled over for that but my friend has had his for 6 months without getting pulled over, so whatever. I dont cruise around everywhere with them on. I made a blue glass lens to replace the yellow one in the assembly. it took altogether like 2-3 hours. I live in south cali, laguna niguel in orange county

Wow, your car looks hot!

Can you give us more details on how you "made" the glass lens? Did you fabricate the glass yourself???????

Don't worry about being pulled over for blue fogs. As long as you stay away from nozzle lights and blue signals you should be fine.

BTW, your friend is lucky for not having been pulled over in 6 months with blue signals. I was pulled for blue signals, and got nailed for 4 other violations as well!!!!!

Default blue lens

all i did was take out the yellow lens and got the dimensions i needed, then i went to a stained glass window store picked out a type and asked them to make me what i had written down. They chaged me $20, Then i mounted the lens on the foglight assembly.

they made the spherical lens? If you replace it w/ flat glass, you lose the projection lens, and the light will go everywhere.
