Painted Stock Tail Lights - Need Pics
Friday, May 20, 2005 9:06 AM
I saw some awesome work on here once where someone had taken a Cavalier and painted the tail lights and bezel the same color as their car and left the circles for the light to come through.

I would love to see those pics again as I am getting rid of the RK Sport CF bezel and my altezzas and going with this look.

I'd appreciate it if someone could hook me up so I can show my body shop what I want.

Thanks,

Steve

I Tried doing that to mine once, but I didn't like how it turned out at all. I ended up having to buy some new Carbon Fiber Tails instead...

However, the paint I used didn't match perfectly, so it looked stupid. Sorry, no pictures Steve

Yeah, I don't think it would look too good if the color didn't match...

We did this on crums ( caviking ) cavalier. Came out real nice but the cops didnt like it for some reason. they never like nething that looks better than the pig cruiser. But we did do it, contact him he might still have some pics of it.

Did he have to get rid of it due to tickets, etc? I can't see what would be illegal about it - the lights still shine through in all the right places...

Thanks Big Boi! Man, I am definitely doing this!

Screw RK Sport - they are on a HUGE wait to get a new CF bezel. I am tired of their crap and just saved a few bucks...

Not sure why my Search did not bring this topic up...

I owe Big Boi a favor now.

I can't freakin' wait - probably next week when I get my antenna and locks shaved...

I'm gonna get rid of the silver bowtie (the long one) on the bezel and replace it with my CF version. That should look sweet with the Arrival Blue and my CF front emblem.

Man, this thing is finally pulling together - only took 2 years! Unfortunately, the only mods left for me are gonna be the high-priced ones...
