Smoked front fogs?

[eko]

Has anyone smoked there early front fogs?
Going to have a go at doing mine to match the headlights.
Was going to try and make some Xhairs to do it.
Anyone got a template?

LaminX

LaminX

Not available in the UK although i suppose there is an alternative?
This will restrict light though right?
Ok,i never really use the fogs but may as well try and do it right!
Someone on the E30zone suggested i try and use some fine mesh sprayed black and stuck inside the lens,may look into doing this?

Right gave the above method a go!
Managed to find half a tin of Satin Black in my shed.
Gave the metal a couple of coats after a coat of primer.
Then hot glued them inside the lense.
Then using the same Black sealant that i used for my headlights(lasted 6 months so far with no leaking) i bonded the lenses back on.
Took the following pictures along the way,although not the best.
End result actually looks better than the picture shows but proof will be when i refit them to the car tomorrow,ill update the pics then.
Anyway let me know what you think.
If you think they look shite then say so :D

that probably restricts more light than laminX would.

But where is the fun in cutting laminX.
Rather put the effort in and have a go at modifying,so much more satisfaction:D
