Yellow paint for front turn signal housing?

Hey guys, so I'm just wondering if anyone here has painted their front turn signal housing yellow? If so what did the you use? I like the look of the yellow foglight light kit but I'm not going to be doing that so I wanted to do the signal housing yellow. I took a few attempts at using the tint film but the housing has too many angles on it and I'm getting fed up with trying that over and over haha.



Thanks ✌️

Testors model paint. Candy yellow or orange, maybe mixed.
They have small spray cans too.

@Veeoh

If you want the inside of the housing to be shiny/mirror/chrome like the picture you posted than do this... http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...09&postcount=3

Spray directly on the chrome reflectors (do not prep, this is important). Pics...

I eventually want to do something basically identical to the pic in OP's post. Is there an aftermarket turn signal housing I can buy, or do I have to paint/film the OEM housing to get this look?
