Should I do it or no?

Luckily I sprayed a spare tail light only. I'm kinda leaning towards doing it but kinda feels it looks.cheesy. I did go a little darker than I wanted though. Thoughts are welcomed. Sorry for crappy pics. Lights on/off.

Looks good. What did you paint with. I did this to my lights. I used taillight tint paint from Auto Zone. Sprayed 2 light coats and wet sanded and polished.

Well if you move back to MN then I'm sure you can post on the MNGCREW page. Maybe there is a waiver or something you can fill out

Man, I did this 3 times before I got it right. Right meaning shiney. I used vht nightshades. This is 3 coats with 2000 grit wet sanding clear and polish. If I do decide to do the lights, at least ill have learned from the mistakes and take my time to spray evenly so i won't have to do a 3rd coat. I'll update with pics in the sun or if I decide to go with it.

Haha, and I like the waiver idea... I Tvang will consent to a 90 day probationary period lol...

I decided against this mod. Pulled it into the sun and was just not feeling the look of it. Good thing it was a spare light
