      Good work, Steve... Getting those pesky reflectors colored in makes a huge difference! I was so happy once I had them painted on my car.

      Yup, an old thread --

      I can't remember if it's been answered before --

      What color/type of paint did you use? Would Honda nighthawk black touchup paint be useful?

      I've been trying to decide between tinting the markers and getting clear ones for my black EP, and at the moment, I think the cost/looks ratio is very much in favor of tinting.

      Those look great. I was concerned with how the would reflect still, but they look like they still reflect well in your photos. What paint did you use, and where did you get it?

      All questions can be answered here.

      (I bought the paint at a hobby shop.)

      If I was you, I'd have them done by a professional. I had the ones on my Passat done and it was definitely worth it.

      Before:



      After: ($75 later....Tail Lights, Side Markers, and Indicators were tinted.)

      Thanks.

      It had Front and Back air bag suspension, a decent audio system and not really any performance. :)

      It certainly turned heads and was a freaking money pit!

      As long as we're sharing former Rangers... :)

      My '99 Autumn Orange SuperCab

      Never went truly nuts on it, but keep in mind all of that was done on a leased vehicle...
