no, i did this like 4 years ago you need to go to a arts and crafts store and get some transparent paintOriginally Posted by K2OH2SLOW
I used this:
Vans red tail paint (permanent w/built in clear)
*Use 2 cans for a nice deep vibrant red, light coats in between sprays, mask of the reverse circles
end result:
i have used the vans paint before. Really good product. All colors also (dark tint, yellow, and red)
Is there a DIY for this for people who are apprehensive about trying it(like me)?
i have not done a DIY but what i have done is:
clean the tailights good with rubbing alcohol.
if the tails are a bit dirty or old i would wetsand it (i forgot what size paper)
clean it
then spray accordingly about 1 foot away until desired look.
If you purchased brand new tails there is no need for wetsanding.
damn, i love this pic...the color looks so good on the tails...what year are the tails? i really want to do this asap...where can i find the vans paint at? and about how much will it cost me?I used this:

The tails/car are 2005.
Racinglab.com sells the paint (their shop is 15 minutes away from my house)
About $30 for a can i think but dont quote on me that. If you order from racinglab, ask for Vincent if you call and then say Jeremiah referred you and ask for a discount. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
