painted my tails

:bandit:

looks good :) welcome to the board. Did you paint a set of clears? or just your stocks?

Look like stocks to me, you can still see remnants of the amber if you look in the left side pic of the left taillight.

Looks good man.
I like those a HELL of alot better than altezza's. I'm sure most people here would agree with me :)

I was wondering how u painted them with normal paint or what cause if it was normal paint wouldnt make it completely dark?:confused:

When painting tails, normally a "translucent" or "stained glass" paint is used.

i did not know that thanx....can i get this at a kmart or walmart? and is it leagel

testors transparent candy apple red...i bought mine at the grocery store..lol

looks realy good, im doing mine this week, the right paint to use for this is transparent paint.

i was wondering if altezzas would look good if you painted the lenses red instead of the clear. has n e one seen this done yet?

Looks halfway decent I think.

I want altezza's with smoke lenses, that would be awesome. How do you go about smoking the plastic anyway, do they make paint for that? I doubt it's anywhere near legal but it would look badass.

Looks decent I think, 95civicman did his when he used to have teh 5th gen.

Might be a good bet to PM him and ask if he has any day pics, cause I couldnt find any.
