Back when I just got my car, my friend put this ricey stuff on mine and made them silver. It actually looked pretty good.

EndlessRPMs 06-05-02 09:05 PM

i dunno what i wanna do...i wish there was somethin cool AND functional i can do with them besides just taking them out... :redface: oh well, ill wait to see what everyone thinks...

jreynish 06-05-02 09:32 PM

peacekeeper 06-05-02 09:51 PM

Flash to Pass.
Thats what it means.

jreynish 06-05-02 09:54 PM

thank you!

RotorBalls 06-05-02 10:22 PM

vinyl might not be so bad, you can always remove it when it starts looking like shit

rico05 06-05-02 10:39 PM

Mine are hollowed out and painted black. I get compliments all the time...

UniqueTII 06-06-02 11:11 AM

I was looking at mine the other day and thinking of coming up with a design to put lights in there, instead of the expensive J-spec conversions.

EndlessRPMs 06-06-02 12:23 PM

i was also thinking of putting lights in, but im not sure...something like thin rectangular driving/fog lights...if anyone has done this, can you post pics!

Roy James 06-06-02 12:23 PM

i wanna do the same, get rid of the pop ups, make the hood go all the way across where the lights are now, and have some nice lil lights in the FTP place.. just an idea....

PlayinW/Wankel 06-06-02 12:25 PM

Rico05 got any pics?

tIIforever 06-06-02 12:36 PM

drill a hole in the back of them and hot glue in a light bulb and wire it into the parking lights. thats what im gonna do

bcty 06-06-02 08:03 PM

hmm i got a Q... for the hyper white bulbs the hondas use can u just hook those up to a + and a - and will it work or doen it need a resistor or sumpthing

Rattaan 06-06-02 08:07 PM

I saw a pic somewhere of a set that was candy coated the paint color. Obviously you can't candy coat white, but red looked cool as snot. I might eventually try some blue for mine. I just don't want them to come out looking gay blue :gay:

KenshinFC 06-07-02 01:55 AM

i actually made some FTP lenses with lights in them. I wired them into a switch in my car so they are almost like foglights. The problem is that when you use highbeams when the headlights are down, it won't really work. What who needs them since you have lights in the FTPs now, right ?

- Kevin

I'll post up pics when I finish and get them installed.

TonyTurboII 06-07-02 03:46 AM

Are they sealed, or open?

rico05 06-07-02 11:41 AM

I will shoot a pic tonite of my FTP lights. I just used a Dremel to hollow the lenses out, but left a thin plastic outline of the lenses, painted them black, and reinstalled them. It really adds an aggressive look to the front end...

87GXLRX7 06-08-02 09:56 AM

EndlessRPMs 12-08-02 10:48 PM

la la la! i've come back to BUMP my own thread to see what people think!!

Makenzie71 12-08-02 11:39 PM

I have a set of landing lights I'll sell you....brackets, breakers, switches and all.....they'll mount right in there....(some creativity required).

They look just like typical slim oblong fog lights with iodized lenses...

86GXL 02-09-04 04:27 AM

DTR's Daytime running lights. all you need is a drill... and some 194 bulbs and sockets

PHATFC3S 02-09-04 11:36 AM

i think theres a company that has the ftp's as vent s or something like that.. i cant remeber if it was feed or rotary run racing or somone. but they were polished sideways vents. they didnt look too bad
