I'm glad that you posted that. I remember someone that did the sexima mod and didn't paint over the little sidemaker and I was thinking of doing it but with what did you cover the sidemarker during the painting? What did you use to make the shape of the corner light?Cause I'd like to keep the corner light even if I do the sexima mod.

if you do that mod, trade me your black chrome altezzas for my standered chrome ones. Im looking for a pair of black chromes, i think thell look better on my black max. just a thought.

Well I wasn't thinking about doing this soon...maybe in a couple of months when I won't like my altezza anymore.

Yes, go to http://www.towerpaint.com
They do a good job of matching your original color. I used their paint for my tails.

As for the side markers, yes--I included that in the masking so they would show up. I did a write-up of the process and posted it here. Just do a search on Altezzas. Though you may want to go with 2nd generation Altezzas, as the 1st generation ones were really cheaply made.
