Congrats on the new mod.

For tail light painting, I just went to a craft store (Michael's), and bought some Krylon stained glass paint, which can also be used on plastics. I also bought a UV resistant clear so the red will not fade.


I took off the headlights, taped off where I didn't want the spray to go, and cleaned the lenses with Bug & Tar remover then a degreaser.

Spray several light coats, wait for however long it says to do in the directions, then do several light coats of the UV resistant clear.

Hope this helps!

Oh, here's a pic of mine.

yeah they look good man. im going to try to do that fiday night. when you say degrease spray do they sell it at micheals, and if i just use the bug spray would that be enought to clean them and spray.

They do look better when done on the inside of the lens, butit's WAY harder and more risky.

The best paint I've seen is krylon's stained glass paint. (Micheals). I used testors on the inside. It looks good, like oemish, but hte pics of the krylon looked better, IMO.
