Ok, I've been looking for some paint to use on my tails. The only hobby shop I could have ordered through was closed down by the Gov. Wall Mart has Testors Black Pearl. Now. I'm thinking two things: 1. this is just gloss black paint, or 2. this is a pearl like a colored overcoat. Can it be used on my tails and still have the tails turn amber at night? I'm thinking about taking my tails apart and using new lenses. hmm, this breeds an Idea.
Let me know what you think. Jon |

Yeah, I know the two are set up different......but my idea was to try and do something with the side lenses or the reverse lights and then highlight other lenses with black after redding them out so that they resemble them a little bit. Might not look too great though, but it was an idea. But to answer the original question, Testors makes a transparent black tint spray paint that should work great right on the lens. You can order it online if there arent any hobby shops near you. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |
