I read something about painting the back tail lights red. Does anybody know where to get some paint to paint them with?Does it work? I got a 93 accord and instead of buying the pricy carbon tails I thought about going with a seek red look!

Thanks for any info!

you can get tinting spray from hobby and craft stores. make sure to spray a layer of clear to seal things up

Is there a special brand

testors is a popular brand, but you can buy a japanese brand online ( i can't remember the name of it right now ). the jdm spray comes in alot of shades, the testors comes in a handful, including red.

For the tinting spray again! I was reading online and a site said to sand the tail lights down then paint them then clear coat them w/ (a uv blocked clear coat)!

So does anybody have any other ways besides sanding the lights down! I might change my mind or one day sell my car, and would like to take the tint off!

Thanks again,
Steven

For anybody who wants to paint there tails red! I found the paint! You can get it off ebay! Just type in the search taillight tint!

You dont have to sand anything down just wash off and paint! Already translucent, so its suposed to be clear and shiny!

Those are my taillights from Hot Import Nights from this past August. Man, can't even see my Greddy exhaust lol. For painting the taillights, use a 600 grit sanding paper, then 1500. Wetsanding will take care of any debri that is left on the surface.

krylon has this glass paint stuff thats made to endure the outdoors, if you dont clear coat the testors paint it will fade.

It will fade anyway after about 2 years, just apply another coat and you will be ready to roll
