I'm getting bored of my red/clears and wanted to see if I should give the DTM's a try. Anyone have pics? Preferrably a White Maxima?

 

Crap not white but oh well:

 

 

wow thats nice

 

Not white either, but still DTM.

 

maxima10to1, in that first pic.....Is that reflective tint, or just glare from the angle on the windows?

All those tails look totally hot, guys.

 

there's a dude at my school that has a 97-99 with dtm tails...looks good imo. do it up! i would if i could...

 

and do they make ehm for a 95-96?

 

all glare ....id love some tints. did you get new tint? I would if i had the money

 

thanks guys, i'm most likely going to do this when i get the chance. i have a couple of questions though.
1. Signals must annoy the people behind you since there are no reflectors right?

2. How many degrees and for how long should you put the tail light in the oven?

=)

 

you would have to have red clears, and they dont make them, you make them

 

Anyone with a white max? I wanna see it too.

 

but there is no easy way to make them, you have to get the apc all clears off ebay for like 3-400$ then you have to get the paint to match perfectly, i hate you 97-99's you get all the good tails!

 

Can anyone answer me this? Especially #2.

 

the signal lamp shouldnt annoy anyone, looks like a front blinker, well not as bright


i used 200*f for 7 minutes, and if they werent ready I put them in and retried pulling them apart after 2 minutes, and 2 more and 2 more untill they came apart easy. I didnt use any tools to pry them apart.

 

Heres a link to my max and hectoc's with DTMLINK

 

nice, hey guys what kind of paint did you use, and how many coats?

 

Used a Flat Black and about 2 to 3 coats it depends

 

200 degrees for like 10-12 minutes.. make sure all the screws are out and pull SLOW

 

hey guys, i'm taking them apart now and i borrowed my friends "smoke" spray can. you think it'll look like the pictures above if i add more coats than usual?

 

They look great in real life.

I havent seen anyone who has done them by tinting the inside though. All the ones I've seen they've tinted them on the outside. I'm sure they look a millions times better by tinting them inside.

 

what?? i thought everyone painted the inside (the non-lens part) =( i hope they come out just as nice

 

Yea up close it looks bad... like someone put a piece of tape over the lights... but from a distance it looks great.

You can do it on 95/96's too, just tint them on the outside. But make sure you do a good job at it.

 

ok just finished the outer right tail light, looks pretty good, unfortunately i don't have my digital camera with me but definitely this weekend i'll post it up. btw, i was thinking how about just smoking the outer's and leaving the inners alone. i'm gonna try that first and see how they look and take pictures. =)
