I really want my headlights to look like the Euro Spec ones..HELP PLEASE!

If you take a look at the headlights of the G37's you'll see the turn signal is orange. In the pictures I've seen of the Euro Spec G37's the turn signal is clear. I really want to do that to my car but I have no idea how, and I am not about to go buy Euro Spec lights.

Any ideas???

You can bake the lights but that is risky. Do a search for Igor, he might be able to help you out

You put your headlights in the oven and bake them.


Here is an example of UCLA BRUINs work

Yeah I believe they do, they also paint the inside of the light. Its called the ironman mod. I cant say pick one or the other bc that wouldnt be fair since I havnt used them.

BTW baking the light means baking it in the oven to seperate them so you can remove the amber piece

Yeah by the time you pay shipping for your lights and have them do the removal, your better off buying new lights. Do a search for a member who's name starts with UNV_ I cant remember the rest but he did this mod himself and I saw the light in person and he did a good job. Shoot him a PM

Guy name "Igor" did it for me, here are some more pics, I also changed the turn signal to white, so i wont have any orange shade in the headlight housing.

Wait, when you said you turned the turn signal to white are you talking about the bulb?
