101918, Center tailight painted...
Posted by Flipboi89, Nov-04-08 11:37 AM
So after having my car for a year i finally painted my center taillight. Looks way better then the ricer one. The way i did it.. sanded 320 then 600. 3 coats of paint, then 3 more of clear. It isnt that smooth but it matches well and looks great. Pics haha.

i hate most aftermarket tail lights, but those combined with the painted center portion looks hot. better than factory for sure. nice job man.

Uh well its more then 15 bucks lol. 30 for the paint, 6 for the primer, and like 4 for sand paper. Im now thinking stockers? lol. Im just surprised that it matches so well.
