Default Opinions: Black SC w/ Yellow Headlights
Hey guys... I'm thinking about yellowing out my headlights. What you guys think? Has anyone done it before? Also, I have 6000K HIDs, you think it'll look ok?

Here's my car, for those of you that hasn't seen it. I'll be getting fogs soon, I'm not sure if I like the 97 grill too much... it's too chromy.

I'm with O.L.T. I could see the fogs working. The headlights seem like it would be civic-ish (ricey)

depending on the look that your going for if you wanna go with VIPish then stay with the shinny stuff, but if you wanna go with racing look maybe you u can try the yellow, try using the yellow film , so if you ever change your mind you can always change it back.

wanna sell me ur grill then? pm me

No one thinks it'll look cool? I saw yellow headlights in the first Grand Turismo (PS1) on a Supra and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Guess it won't be popular since I have a Lexus...

I'm going for racing looks not VIP... I'll probably get sick of yellow headlights anyways. Thanks for the opinions so far.

If you don't like the 97+grille look, paint it. Just do something to cover the whole.

If you don't polish your headlights, it will eventually turn yellow. Try that and see if you like it.

A LOT of SC's have yellow headlights. It's normal to me now.
