I'm curious too Gamite, the paint that I have seems to "wash-off" after a few months (4-5), how are yours holding up.

MP> I've seen them at Pacific Mall in Markham, store called Station 28, it actually says "Tail-lamp Spray" on the can. They wanted like $25 for a 250mL spray can, just enough for one set.

The lights are still good, and I sprayed them on when it was cold outside still. Probably feb or march.

i remembered something else to ask you. did u just paint the one part that was yellow/amber and cover the other red ones.

or you painted the whole taillight

? tnx again.

Hey saj tnx for the offer for ur paint

but i think i'm gonna try this one and hope it stays longer the 4-5 months on the lights.

ok one more question

i think it's the last one.

how long did u leave them to dry? over night or just couple of hours?

my car is in the underground garage so i don't feel like having the lights out overnight.

TNX again for all the help guys!!

I let them dry over night, but I guess you could let them dry ON your car.

Just make sure when you do it, there's no dust around, cuz it'll stick right on the paint and stay there. and wait at least an hour before you put em on your car.

yeah i was thinking of taking them out in the morning painting it and then somewhere in the evening put them back in and cover the back of the car or something during that time.
