I have been searching for almost 3 years now to find a nice set of clears to Red/Clear...I bought a set of redclears that were garbage before and I thought that my only chance to ever get them was to hound this kid on campus who had all clears on his car. Well he JUST sold his car, (after 3 years of me hounding him to sell me his lights) and he let me have the all clears...for my stockers.....


i know..


well here's the pictures, i still need to get some better pictures and get some wax on the lights so they buff up to a nice shine...lemme know what you guys think.

I need to jump on the red/clear tail boat soon here.

 

ALSO, what do you guys suggest for pollishing tail-lenses?

 

They look real good

 

hmm hounding kids at skool with them i mite need to start that, i have a kid that lives next to me with them... they are faded pretty bad on one side... i wonder if he even knows what he has

 

look reall gooood

 

I bought mr cleans magic eraser to clean my taillights but it said "wheel and tire" on them. I'm assuming people just use it for taillights despite its specified use on the box. The guy at walmart said they didn't make it for anything else (the magic eraser) so that's what I bought and that's what I've heard people say works good. But itd be nice to know from someone with experience.

 

Thanks for all the compliments guys, i'm gonna get some good pictures tomorrow afternoon - also please weigh in on what to use to clean these things up...thanks!!

 

is there any way to make red/clears? i know my friend tried using a heat gun or something on his dodge shadow and it didnt work...

 

check out the 4th gen how to's

 

Very nice, I really need to find me a pair of those, and you got them for free (minus stockers), lucky...

 

christhenite it looks awesome. i am starting hunt for mine

 

Do not use that on plastic it is abrasive and will scratch the plastic. Use plastic polish u can get it at pep boys or autozone.

 

yup plastic plish, look in detailing forum for more info

 

damn, you are so lucky

 

i see alot of dudes around my way with all clears, dam i should buy them some altezzas for it

 

well these might be for sale soon - if anyone wants to make a reasonable offer...i just cant justify having these on my car...this is just a feeler thread so i dont want it to end up in the F/S forum..PM me if you wanna talk $$.

 

Lucky you. I just said forget it after I heard the prices red/clears for 96's were going so I did the 97' rear conversion instead. Very worth it.

 

wtf? i dont get this thread...why cant u justify having them on ur car?

 

Wow, why would you not want to keep the Red/Clears. I will talk money with you, but Im guessing I need to post more to gain that priveledge. Everything Ive tried doing with posts so far has told me I dont have priveledge, I feel like a little kid lol.

 

ok, first offer, 250 shipped

 

HA!

10chars

 

they dont look like they came out good at all. Is that why your thinkin of selling them?

Ant

 

ANT: Hmm, no. I think they came out really good. I'd be interested to know what doesnt look that good on them...keep in mind those pictures were right after I finished them before plastic pollish etc. and in bad lighting.

and I'm thinking about selling them because it bugs me to have 300$ sitting on the back of my car. I dunno - so if the offer of 250$ is legit I guess we start bidding there.

 

Not to mention if you got rear ended, god forbid. You'd be down and out 2 ways.

 

sweet deal dude, doesnt get any better than free. they look really good

 

You sound fortunate to even already have had a set. Why couldn't you just fix the ones that are 'garbage'?

 

the ones that were "garbage" were broken in half horizontally, and the paint was mismatched and would not strip. I tried everything, but in the end I just had to throw them out...it killed me.

 

Meguiars Plast-x Polish works awesome! Or a good regular car wax also works well. Good luck and looks nice man!!

 

WhyTF do you think they call it an abrasive? Like I can see the scratches on my lights after I used it once. Really cleaned them off good. I used it on my interior vinal. Vinal = plastic

 

VINYL!!!! Just to help you out man.

 

wow, now thats commitment there. i'm so glad i don't have a 95 or 96

 

meguiar's plast-X will do wonders


congrats!

 

No way. I have red/clears on my '96 and I appreciate/enjoy them way more than the red/clears on my '99. They're not as special on a '97/'99.

Besides the red should be on the bottom darn it. :I

 

They look real good and man did you get lucky to get them for your stock lights.

 

thanks for all the compliments guys...

 

Still for sale...

 

What is still for sale??

 

His 95-96 red/clears.. They might be already gone if he posted a for sale in the correct forum

 

I'm lost. Isn't this whole thread about how excited he was to have red/clears? Then all of a sudden 'Still for sale'??
