thinking of doing something different with my FTP lense...what do you guys think....

 

go for it you can always take them out if it don' work

mike<---ftp less since 95

 

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

 

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

 

what does FTP stand for i know what they are and where they are mine are not there they were removed when i baught the car! but i still dont' know what they mean!

 

Flash to Pass.
Thats what it means.

 

thank you!

 

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

 

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

 

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.

 

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!

 

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....

 

Rico05 got any pics?

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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 ?

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

 

Are they sealed, or open?

 

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...

just clear coat them.... mine were black and *** i hated it...

 

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

 

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...

 

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

 

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
