Different people will tell you different things, but I say candy apple red paint in several light coats, then a hell of a lot of clearcoat in one thick coat. (with the bottom 30% masked off of course)

Don't buy it. The red lights don't actually point straight out like they should. If you've seen it in person, you'll know what I'm talking about.
