The CRX doesn't look good... doesn't match quite right.

The RSX however, great job.

Not a bad idea, although i wonder about the longevity. Nice find. :)

Using the red Testor's paint like many other members have used looks like a better finish.

This isn't that bad though. I personally would have covered the whole light though, for a uniform color.

^ it probably wouldnt be uniform though since you have a red filter on a red filter, then a red filter on a yellow filter. Doesnt look bad though, I am considering taking out the amber on my celicas tail lights and making it all red

i was just think the vinyl is like a window tint.. i wounder what it would look like if i took the next step up from limo and them did it ?? hey unlike paint it comes off like tint it last some time i just found out a friend did to his s-10 and hes had them red for over a year

Just mask off the red and paint only the orange?

Wet sand it with 2000 grit, and throw a couple coats of clear over it. You match it right, it'll look oem.

I've done it many a time in both red and black.

^ thanks for the tip, it probably wont get done soon as the celica is sitting down front, but will need this info for when Im ready to do it :)
