I had PnP HID's before in fog lights (both projector style and regular, projector worked great with 3000k bulbs, regular housings with 4500k, not so much) and in headlights (only in halogen projector housing, 4500K, looked good, thought I had good visibility but took them out after a few months and can see better with some Nighthawk Halogen bulbs).

Actually my headlights and foglights are a big difference from when they were halogens, i have a good few with them

But often the spray tint looks cheap or flat and doesn't weather well. Professionally sprayed they'll last forever
