Hey guys, I just failed. I was trying to take my foglights apart and broke one.

I have two questions:

One, how do you take the foglight glass off of the aluminum frame? I baked it in the oven for 15mins at 200 degrees and used a screw driver to try to pry the glass off of the frame... thats when it shatered. Does anyone have any experiance with this, please help. I couldn't find a thread on it.

And two, does anyone know a good place to buy a foglight?

I want to spray paint the reflective chrome, yellow....

I found translucent yellow spray paint and have tested it on a similar surface ( a mirror) and it turned out amazing. So now I want to spray paint the fog light glass lens on the inside and the chrome part yellow.

I had yellow overlays but they didn't cover the whole fog light (which really aggravated me) and now over time they have faded and they don't look as crisp.

If I can get these apart and do this I`m pretty confident people will be using this method to yellow out their fogs from now on. The mirror that I did it on looks like it was made yellow, no drips, spots, or streakes. Words can't discribe how well this could turn out!!
