Lol at whoever is playing call of duty
When are u going to bake it because it says bake in the title
Still don’t know why they didn’t do this straight from the factory? It
looks so good, older model mustangs had smoked out lights like 01-04
any condensation problems after resealing the lights?
I’m assuming this voids factory warranty??
Who’s playing call of duty in the background lol.
Thanks ima do that its more safe than paint, thanks for the vid helped a lot
I’m actually doing this right now it’s not as hard but I’m on my fourth
cycle in the oven the glue is super strong on mine but I think after this
one the lens will come off its already really loose I’m just making sure I
don’t break anything
One even coat of plasti-dip. We let it dry for about a hour.
The screwdriver that I used flexed a little, so I really didn’t worry about
it cracking the lens. A wider screwdriver may still work just as good.
Thanks. Hopefully I will have some more subie how to, when I get back to
the States.
Only if I could remember.
I wanna do this to my car as well but I want to put angel eyes on as well.
Do you have any advice for this or know anything bout that. Do you know if
the led angel eye lights will be ok after I bake the housing to reseal it.
I’m kinda nervous to try this. How many coats of plasti dip did you use and
how long did you let it dry before you sealed the headlight back up? Thanks
for the tutorial. 🙂
The plastidip is holding up great. If you want you can spray it with
anything, but plastidip can be removed later.
did you ever worry about the screwdriver cracking the front lens when you
were using the twisting motion to break the glue? think a wider screwdriver
would be safer?
Oh cool! Yeah I’ve experimented with Plastidip a lot on my wrx lol. I just
wanted to know how the plastidip holds up against the temperature. I love
plastidip! I dipped my front vents, emblems, and side emblem. And thanks
for responding!
Do you know if this method applies to 2012 2.0i?
You may get Grey RTV from any autoparts store, its not nessary. Your
condensation maybe caused from a missing component or a crack in the
housing. Just take your time.
Looks awesome nice job thanks for taking it step by step
It takes a little force to split, sorry for the late reply, I’m deployed
right now.
That looks sick…
How has the plastidip been holding up on the lights? Did it melt or
anything?
Well if the Angle eyes should be fine when you heat it back up. I wouldn’t
glue the angle eye in place.
Very nice job btw
A lot of work but it looks great. Any problems with water leaking inside?
No.
Plasti dip? Did it stay in place?
No
is the a chance that water from rain or a car wash could get inside and
condensate the lens after baking/opening? did you use a sealant of any
kind? really want to do this but i had my 08 impreza condensate inside the
lens from factory i really dont wanna ruin my 12′ wrx lens. any tips?
thanks! awesome write up btw.
Really me too. Lol I painted my head lights before I split.
This is the manliest baking show I’ve ever seen!
The roommate is playing call of duty in the background….lol
It has stayed in place.
It should be almost the same process.
