I did some red tail lights earlier in the week on my white E30.Looks hot. Only thing im wondering is though, i didnt clear coat them as i didnt want them to look all shiney and rice. It seems to be fine without it, although whats everyone else done...?

I got some spray off the net, made for tinting lights,masked the indicators off, gave them a quick rub down with some fine wetnday paper,didnt have any scotch pads so i thought it might just help dul it up before paint. Cleaned it all up, and sprayed, looks propper!

I havnt been able to get any pictures as the weathers been pants at the mo but ill try and get some tommorow, along with my tinted front indicators (black-to match in with the black strip).


Oh and obviously my lights now flash red, is this legal?I wouldnt of thought it would be much of a problem, you can buy rear lights that are already red/black,so surely as long as they still have the markings on the rear to say their legal, and they work its fine?

cheers mate.The only thing is i havnt clear coated them yet, ill see how they hold up, they havnt pealed or anything as i rubbed the lights down slightly so it helped a bit with the sticking of the paint i think.

I used this stuff mate http://www.gbdriver.co.uk/acatalog/Onli ... nt_55.html in red obviously lol.I didnt know what it was like so i just ordered some. The only thing i can say is it came out a bit chunky, well not chunky, but it wasnt a absolutly fine mist, but when the spray dried it seemed to all smooth over nicely so i havnt got any qualms about it.
