Painting tail light housing

To get the true GTR look for my G35. I'm thinking about painting the tail light housing. Has anyone actually done this before? Any tips?

Just get the Bat overlays, it will be much easier, and you won't permenantly damage anything.

bats overlays are the easy way out and look great. Painting is a very tough process, but looks sick afterward, but its going to cost you if you dont do it yourself. Search the member ducatiguy for pics.

You want a true GTR look, buy a GTR!

Otherwise, buy Bat's overlays
