DIY: Painted Tail Lights
#23
i baked it at 225 degrees for about 12 minutes. i started at the bottom and started seperating it with my fingers. was pretty easy. i painted them and put them back in the oven. then put them back together. i'll have pix when i install them on the car.

btw. i got the tails on the car. dang looks sick. no pix as i got really tired after sparying the lights. maybe i should have been painting in a more well lit area LOL

Thanks guys.....yea, it took a lot of work, probably 8 hours all together. I'm not sure if I even like it that much. I'll have to see if it grows on me.
In regards to painting the reflector, if I had to do it again, I would paint the reflector black, but leave the smooth part of the outer bowl silver....I think thats how the original one was done....
BTW, a heat gun cost $30 at Home Depot.....go get one!
