    i bought a chrome spray paint before, i'll use it sana for my tire mags,

    when i spray rested it, pero ang effect nya is like silver gray lang din... in your case diba u plan to use it sa headlight?!! less din ang reflect non, IMO.

    Try mo surplus kya?! 8)

    I agree! Also tried it once, pero di sya reflective like I expected. :cry:

    Try mo na nga lang surplus. Pwede din ung mga repair shop for lights and lens kasi minsan dun ako pagawa headlights. Meron isa sa evangelista sa makati kung malapit ka dun. PM me for details tsaka may discount! :mrgreen:

    Have you tried chrome plating on plastics? It might work, marami na akong naririnig na some procedures are safe for plastics.

    Meron siguro sa Saulo. It's located in Congressional Avenue... malapit sa Cherry Foodarama. If you can't find it, diretso ka sa kanto ng Visayas Ave and Congressional Ave... ask the other car parts shop there where Saulo is.

    It's like a junkshop, pero marami sila parts dun. You can get good stuff kung marunong ka maghanap at maghalungkat.

    I saw a surplus shop along Araneta approaching Sta Mesa that specializes in Hyundai stuff just this afternoon. If you are coming from QC heading towards SM Sta Mesa, it should be on your right side near Arlington Funeralia.

    ghosthunter::: Parang yan yata yung Seibring International. Importer ng Korean parts for Hyundai & Kia vehicles. Alam ko may store sila sa Kaliraya near Banawe.

    Saulo is a surplus shop dito sa may QC area... marami silang spare parts ng kung anu-ano... try looking there. If not, marami sa Visayas avenue na mga shops daw...

    Temporary fix, while naghahanap ka pa ng reflector....have you tried reynolds aluminum foil... I use to do this a car models...idikit mo dun sa concave reflector and use (perhaps meguires) a scratch remover para mapashine ng husto ang aluminum.

    Hindi kasing reflective ng real macoy but it would be better than the chrome spray imo.

    just my 2 cents.

    Not the Reynolds Aluminum Foil....Use t he thinner ones specially used for decorative purposes they come in gold and silver you can find them in National Bookstore anywhere...

Headlight problem help plz!
