painted corners

[thatG]

hey, i have a black coupe and wanted to paint the corners black instead of getting clears, anyone have any suggestions, or maybe even instructions. thanks.

i would recommend looking at the smoked ones instead of painting them. among other things, at least they will be functional.

i forget what the link is - im sure someone else knows...

i just want it to be a really clean job, and absoloutely no orange visable, thatd take a lot of smokin'ing. this is the first step to the new G..... cause it costs almost no money

I know what you can do...

OK go to a local hobby shop and buy rc window tint. Yes they have this kinda stuff. It comes in a small bottle and u can use it on windows for tinting.

go ahead and wash ur corners, then mask of the area you want to spray. Make sure u account for overspray. Then spray the window tint onto the corner. Make sure you spray evenly and go 1 coat then let it try then another coat and let it dry. Then watch and see how many coats reaches the darkness you like. Then after u can spray on a coat of clearcoat. To remove the tint you can use acetone or nailpolish remover.

I'll post a pic of a friend's car that did the tinting...I just gotta ask him when I see him and hes not online. Don't worry I'll post it by tonite

The rear tails red area is smoke, his reverse lights aren't. How do u like? Thats a honda accord v6 6mt, just incase your not sure how large the rear lights are.

hmmmmm, thats pretty nice, and thats just with the smoke spray, does anyone know how to take the corners out. I think i might do this tommorow. I got this idea from a carribean blue i saw, looks pretty sweet, hope im as happy as he prob was tommorow.

corners pop right off. just from the fender, then disconnect the cable. you will see... EXTREMELY easy. (too easy actually)

[thatG]

has anyone ever had their clears stollen, thats how one of my dickhead friends got his, well not a friend but you know what i mean. I'd imagine if it just takes some force those things'd be getting stollen left and right. It seems like this is a pretty easy mod, almost not a mod, that everyones got too.

[msb3079]

yeah they are entirely too easy to get off. you could literally do it in 3 seconds with your eyes closed.
