    Amber TTG fog lights ; how to ?

    Hi,
    I read that amber (yellow) TTG (thru the grill fog lights) were having painted reflectors and not yellow lenses as H1 headlights ; does someone ever tried to replicate yellow TTG ? What paint or process did you use to get the right yellow shade ?

    Thanks for your help !

    I have original yellow 118s, but a little of the yellow coating was flaking. I used this to touch it up.
    Worked well.

    That is what I used. They came out too dark the first try. Paint thinner removed it very easily and they were then re-spayed.

    The bottom photo has the shade from a tree making them look like two different shades.
