Tricky-Ricky Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 As i am respraying my car white, i was wondering about changing the rear light look, can't justify a set of face lifts, so i have two ideas, one is to just tint them black, or the other is to mask circular pieces on the outside of each lamp like the face lift but on the outside, and spray in white to match the body, what do you think?

Ian W Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 but facelifts are under £100? just save some pennies and get some later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 i think gaz might be going a gb on the tinted covers... maybe... liquidart had some of these at japshow...

Tricky-Ricky Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 Thats exactly what i meant, but i can achieve the same result in paint;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 the finish on the liquidart ones were very good. i dont believe you could mask them anywhere near the same. and they look nice and 3d. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 i would tint them black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louisjames Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Thats exactly what i meant, but i can achieve the same result in paint;) ive seen it done with paint and done them, looks the dogs. if your are confident with spray id say give it ago. imo, covers are cheap and tacky. especialy the crap you get in halfords which stick out an inch.
