I'll search around and find the right shade of red and amber. Then I'll paint the insides and outsides. With a little wetsanding and a lot of coats I think that it'll work great. The best part is that if I mess up a color the worst I can do is go back to clear and start over. I'll use vinyl stencils for the area that I want to leave clear, and another for amber, then I'll use the reverse of those stencils for when it comes time to paint the amber. They best part is that the tails already have a spot moulded in where the reflectors are to house a housing and bulb for the turn signals. They won't be in separate enclosures like the true exports are, but it'll still look very similar.Onyx, I would like to use a film, but I'm afraid of how well it will go down on all the curves, and I'm also afraid of having it with a not-quite-gloss finish. I guess some clearcoat on top of the vinyl could work well?</blockquote>
