31438, Removing "ghost" eclipse letters
Posted by netrelik, Sep-20-02 03:23 AM
I removed the eclipse letters from my center tailpiece, and from a distance you can still see the letters. Does anyone know how to get rid of these? Thanx…

you can't get rid of them. it's darker where the letters used to be because the letters protected it from the sun. you'll just have to leave it and let the sun fade that too or you can paint it.

Just paint your taillight centerpiece to match your paint.

Not true. use WD-40 with a bath towel...the rough surface of the towel is just enough but not too much to scratch the lens and the wd-40 breaks it all up...and it's safe for the plastic. :)

I'll have to try the wd-40 trick tonight. I do want to paint my center tail piece and also my headlights. Does anyone know where to get paint for cheap, because my friend said he would do it for free if I get the paint. Thanx...
