Default I need an amber headlight or amber stuff to stick on the headlight...

I need an amber headlight or amber stuff to stick on the headlight... This is for a friends bike and it must be amber, not yellow like mine. Can someone help? He wants a 6.5" or 7" headlight like on an old school springer.

thanks!

Drew

I would be interested to hear how the film fits a convex surface. Can you use a heat gun on the stuff?

If its good tint you can. You just need to take your time. Stretch a bit with the heat and lay it flat. Buy a big enough piece to do it twice and you'll do it right the first time.

Yea you need to use a heat gun to get it nice and flat just use a rag, start in the center and work your way out applying presure if you dont have a vice your gonna need a homie to help out.

I would suggest a yellow window film, you can pick a piece up at any local Pep Boys. You should be able to wet shrink it with a heat gun and it will form to the headlight. Work out all the air bubbles with a sqweege.
