Exclamation Need help about tail lights

Everyone except URWEAK, I need to know where I can find a site, supplies, and information on how to make custom lights for my 1995 Grand AM.

I did take URWEAK advice but it isn't letting me send forums.

Also, what kind of spoilers do u have on your Grand AMs because i just got a MUSTANG SPOILER added on.

Re: Need help about tail lights

***Instructions On How To make your GT Tail Lights clear***
From Unwanted Black Lines and Hairline Scratches

Materials that I used:
1.Blow Dryer
2.Wire cutters(Big & Small)
3.Small Knife (Pocket Type)
4.Small Hammer
5.Flat Head Screw Driver (Big and Small)
6.Craylon Spray paint glossy(Black) at Pepboys
7.Masking tap
8.BLUE MAGIC:Plexiglass & Plastic Cleaner ($2.99 at Pepboys)
9.BLUE MAGIC:Metal Polish ($2.99 at Pepboys)
10.Two Clean towel's
11. YOUR FINGERS AND HANDS
12.Chrome Paint (Pepboys)

1ST:I used the blow dryer and started to blow dry the GT Tail lights starting with the top black line. Blow dry until it gets real hot.
2ND:Use the screw driver and hold it at a 30 degree angle and place it always in the center of the black plastic line where the lens & the black plastic meet.
3rd: Slowly hit the screw driver with the hammer until you hear a cracking noise.
4th:Continue to to do this on the same plastic line starting from the center working to your left & right.
5th:Slowly lift it up until its free from the lens.
KEEP IN MIND I DID THIS ON MY LAP SITTING DOWN IN A CHAIR
6TH:With your wire cutters cut both ends of the plastic line as far as you can or break them off with your hands.
7th: Repeat all these steps on every black plastic line that is stuck to the lens.
KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU SHOULD AT ALL TIMES BLOW DRY THE SECTION THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON BECAUSE WHEN THINGS GET HOT IT EXPANDS THEIR FOR ITS HELPING YOU TO SEPARATE THE LENS FROM THE BLACK LINES BY CRACKING THE GLUE AS YOU HAMMER THE SCREW DRIVER TO SEPERATE THE TWO.

Once you got the lines out use your masking tap to line out the edges of the outer part of the lens. Then use your crylon spray paint to paint the outer edges. Do 3 to 4 coats.

Once the paint is dry use your Blue Magic Plastic-Plexiglass Cleaner to remove all the scratches and etc.
Then buff it out and do the same thing with the metal polish which is nonabrasive. This will make your lens look 90 percent better then what they were.

I Hope this helps.
P.S. I got the red lens from pepboys for $3.99 (Two are 3"dia. & Two are 2-1/2"dia.) PVC pipe from Home Depot.

Please take your time and if you have a better way of doing it Good Luck.
