RobertISaar Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 i don't blame him, it's a bitch to do by hand... if you could pull them off it wouldn't be so bad. Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Posted December 4, 2009 Maybe that was my problem I left it on the car, and that made some spots very difficult to access. Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 5, 2009 Author Report Posted December 5, 2009 I blacked out my corner lights. This was just an extra set I had lying around, and I had the urge to paint. Quote
jeremy Posted December 5, 2009 Report Posted December 5, 2009 what type of paint? are you going to clear/wet sand them? Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 5, 2009 Author Report Posted December 5, 2009 what type of paint? are you going to clear/wet sand them? Just high gloss paint, I wet sanded them before I painted them. My dad said to to put clear on them and hit it with 2000 grit wet sand paper. Quote
jeremy Posted December 5, 2009 Report Posted December 5, 2009 you just used black paint?? how is any light going to get through? Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 5, 2009 Author Report Posted December 5, 2009 you just used black paint?? how is any light going to get through? Did I say I am not going to put them on the car. Cause I doubt they will go on the car. I just wanted something to paint. Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 5, 2009 Author Report Posted December 5, 2009 I just counted resit, I had to put them on. I didn't like the glossy look they first had and really didn't allow any light to come through. I sanded off the clear and now its got a flat black look to it and allows light through. Quote
RobertISaar Posted December 5, 2009 Report Posted December 5, 2009 need some night shots at a bit of a distance... if they look the way i'm thinking, it could be pretty damn good. Quote

slick Posted December 5, 2009 Report Posted December 5, 2009 how much would you want to do mine Bring them with you back to Ohio, buy the materials and give me $20, and I'll have them done over a weekend. I'll toss them in the Sandblaster at work to remove all imperfections, then sand them to a 2000 grit finish. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted December 5, 2009 Report Posted December 5, 2009 They make a magical substance in an aerosol can called Niteshades. Try it. Quote

I will get some night pics tonight. EDIT: I ran out and just put the passenger side on on. don't think black looks good IMO. Should try white. Best though would be a clear lense with stealth/silverstar bulbs Quote

94 olds vert Posted December 6, 2009 Author Report Posted December 6, 2009 Sorry, I didn't get any night shots last night. I will get some tonight.

ripp Posted December 6, 2009 Report Posted December 6, 2009 If the car was black it would look good Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 6, 2009 Author Report Posted December 6, 2009 I think its looks good. I did up a 3rd brake light in black. I will post a pic soon. I want to get some saw blades and paint them black,for the winter. EDIT: OOPS All this stuff is just for the winter, since I won't be driving the car. Its for my entertainment. Quote
slick Posted December 6, 2009 Report Posted December 6, 2009 Just as I told Psychomatt (before most of your's time on here), he had a white vert and did the same. Looks like a Raccoon. Quote
oldscsc Posted December 6, 2009 Report Posted December 6, 2009 I want to get some saw blades and paint them black,for the winter. NO and NO! Quote
Twenty Posted December 7, 2009 Report Posted December 7, 2009 They look nice, but I'm worried they might be a bit too dark if you ever wanted to drive the car with them. Quote
Euro Posted December 7, 2009 Report Posted December 7, 2009 They look nice, but I'm worried they might be a bit too dark if you ever wanted to drive the car with them. They're just side markers..mine are black and there's no problems.. Quote

94 olds vert Posted December 7, 2009 Author Report Posted December 7, 2009 Maybe before I get the new one painted I will. Quote
