This is a better pic I thought I would show you guys,

 

That is the ****, looks great with no 500 dollar inspire Still I can't find the paint you used, I asked around but no one could get me the "Transparent Candy Apple Red"...does the brand matter?

 

Go to www.testors.com order it through them. It's candy apple red transparent spraypaint. Ya I like it a lot too.

 

The link doesn't work can you post it again? Thanx!

 

works now buddy, try it.

 

Thanx a Lot! I'll try and find it!

 

There is no place no search and i'm having a little trouble can you help me out one last time? Thanx

 

Never mind I finally found it! Can't wait till it arrives

 

Thanks for the info. I got the paint at a Hobby Town, $3.45, small can.

Just a question, actually, I am having 2nd thoughts, but how does it really match the RED in our tails. The picture looks good, but can you tell between the two color? Tell me it matches super!

Also, what did you do when it came to the Back up light, just stopped at the line?

How did you mask it and what did you use as masking? The painter's mask? The blue thingy?

I know I have a bunch of ?? but please bear with me, I want for the tails to look and feel awesome.

And is this reversible? Can we take it off if we screw up or something?

I am so so ready! Can not do it today, it is so freaking cold! It's 20 outside. The paint label says do it in 70 degree temp.

Anyway, I was so happy when I came in to the store, it was my 2nd store to check into, when I mentioned to a sales guy, I was kind of shy to say what I was going to do with it, but he actually sounded that he knew it was one of the things that people used the paint for. Lots of other colors, too. That's the other thing I wanted to ask, Candy Apple Red matches out tails perfect?

Thanks for all your patience....feels good to post again!

Freaking cold Atlanta!

 

It's that cold in ATL!! Wow i'm in Miami (going to school) I live in Roswell GA... it's still 70 here.. 50 last night that's considered cold down here.. The tails should work out great...

 

Ya it matches the stock red in the back very nice. Ya don't paint the back up light. I just used newspaper to mask the back and no you dont have to wear any type of mask. It's not that big of a project. Ya it can come off with gasoline, lol. I've done all my cars in the garage. Good luck Mandy.

 

i believe it's three or four coats of the spray paint for it to look like or stop lights. remember to let each coat dry and make sure not to apply too much or else you'll get blobs of it on the edges. i suggest taking the whole housing out and do it so that you won't have any accidents and get any paint on the car. it's easier to manuver too. just use masking tape and newspaper to cover up what you don't want to get painted. pretty easy process with nice ass results.

 

Thanks for your replies!

I will do it now!!!!!

 

I had to order it over the internet so i'm still waiting but like she said, Is the process reversible?

 

DONE!

Nice looking tails. I will post pics!

And lastly, Mandy's a he! At least the last time I looked!

Thanks all!

 

What do you guys think? its better to have the red turns or to clear up the turn signals like i did to my max? the housing looks same so i might go ahead and clear em out so they look like INSPIRE .. btw i did my max thing myself... check out my sig

 

Streeteffectz does something nice with our lights. Maybe he can post the picture again.

 

Painting talights makes all the difference in the world. Your maxima looks sweet. Very nice.

 

those are my taillights that streeteffectz did the whole bottem is clear it was 150 for both tails cleared but it looks alot better than stock.

 

how much would this run for and if Im in LOS ANGELES how can i get a hold of some... I dont feel like paying 500 dollars for the inspire ones but i cannot stand the way the back of my car looks
