vr6corrado 0 Posted March 3, 2005 IIRC Kevhaywire has done this - if you mean painting between the main and dipped beam units. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted March 3, 2005 I just used some touch up pens. Took a wee while but after a couple of coats it was fine. Might be best to try something that you can remove easily first in case you dont like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted March 3, 2005 Might sound stupid, but would something as simple as a permanent marker work? (If you cleaned the area correctly) Would always come off easily with some white spirit as well. Obviously painting them would be far better :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 3, 2005 I did mine with hammerite smooth... get new lenses at the same time, look much better now! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted March 3, 2005 I used Hammerite too, and a medium/fine brush. REALLY easy mod and they look sooo much better. Takes an hour or two. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
