...to buy new bulbs for my front turn signals that aren't amber, so can I use some type of transparent silver paint to paint them?
On another note, the reason I want to do this is because I just got done doing other shit to my car over the weekend, and I want to do more but don't have anymore parts to install. I'm done for school, and I've got nothing to do when I get off of work tonight. Just looking to do odd shit to my car that I can do with crap laying around my house/garage, and this came to mind.

That will get rid of the amber and leave me with a clear bulb if I'm not mistaken. Is there any type of paint that will allow the light to shine through and not flake off or melt?

I painted mine with the silver touch up paint that I got. left an opening at the rear of the bulb. No amber color, still legal when blinking
