Can anyone vouch for these or the seller or both?

There was some German boy who was offering professionally done tints but I can't find the link?
Cheers

if they are sprayed then you might as well just do your own yourself,it would be cheaper.

if people are willing to pay £50 for standard lights sprayed with colouring then good on him for taking their money from them

bu honestly, do it yourself, you'll save a lot of money and its not so hard,
or just go to a car-depot (old cars) and buy an rear lights set and try it, if you fail you didn't lose to maney money, don't worry it's easy!!

loads of people on e30 zone are doing this. "proffesionally sprayed" my arse!
The thing is i dont think he has been busted at all, fair enough he shouldnt try and sell them to zoners for £50 but if he can make money off ebay losers fair play to him.
I think i have a spare set of lights in the shed

i did my indicators red and got tugged by the law one night for my red indicator flash.
Never tried it but if green bulbs can be purchased or some model paint applied to the indicator bulbs then you may get away with it.

that would be an option as reverse lights arent needed for the mot anyway.would just need to fit an orange bulb.Quaser wrote:i remember someone changed the wiring for the reverse lights to be used as the indicators

hi guys you can do them your self they look good if you take your time to clean and mask them propery
i got one set for my cab from dips but i also sprayed a set to see if i can do them myself and the finsh was good so i ended up selling them to cover cost of the ones i brought as i paid around £45-50
i tink they will shine red if you do too many coats of the red tint spray you can try and use the bright l.e.d bulbs to see if they help to make it more orange
