Thoughts on YELLOW Rally lights?

What do you guys think of yellow rally lights? I found a company who makes films that fit the rally lights pre-cut, has anyone done this?

I like it as well. I personally have a red countryman with the black headlights and wanted to do the fogs with yellow film. If you have a ligh tbar with 2 lights or plan on getting one i think it would look good. The 4 rally light bar would probably be to much. What color is your vehicle (i think white correct?).

I had them on my Suzuki SX4 with 4 Hella 500ff. It was a cool look for sure and does take away some of the glare when on snow. I had the film on my headlights and fogs as well, the rally lights were usually covered with the stone guards. I also had some kind of hyper yellow bulbs in my fogs and I got the idea people didn't like those as they drove towards me. (I was big into snowboarding and traveled every storm to get the freshies, hence why I had so many yellow lights)

My car is royal grey. I included a photo at the beginning of the post with the fog lights yellowed (done in Photoshop) to get opinions. Pretty sure I'm going to order the film. Apparently it will protect them from rocks too since I don't want to cover them with the plastic covers, I like to see them, plus don't want to have to get out every time I want to use them to take the covers off.

Go for it looks great in that color wasnt sure if that was an actual image of your vehicle. The right thickness film definitely does help protect from rock damage or at least prevent shattering. I had a film save my rally lights for my old subaru 2.5 rs by Lamin-X i believe it was around 17-20 mil thickness.
