Half DTM's
A couple months ago I redded out the amber in my tails, I decided to black out the housings of my reverse lights. The pics are just to give people an idea of what this setup looks like.

For the people asking about the outers: I just did it the old fasion 95/96r way and used testor's transparent candy apple red. I did about 4 coats on the amber section ONLY and it happens to match.
For the DTM reverse lights I used 2 coats of a glossy black paint meant for plastic. Thanks for all the comments, hopefully I will have a new idea for the headlights (modified AE?) whenever I decide to do them.

Decided to match the outers. For whatever reason I didn't really like the Red/Smoked combo. If I ever did go back to red outers I would just paint the amber piece and put it behind the clear lense and put the stock reverse light setup back in. I like the look for now however.

Looks better the 2nd way, nice mod.
If you are thinking of doing a nice headlight mod, you might consider my cefiro clone mod. http://digital.ic3donline.com/ae-cefiro

A friend of mine asked me if we could do that (black housing clear reflector), it looks pretty cool but I like the way the clear section looks with DTM. The HTM still looks a tad cloudy to me. Props on the setups guys.

You totally have me figured out though I have been tossing around headlight ideas all week. We will see, thanks for the link.

Who knows how long this will last but for now I am happy with her ass
That super-black looks great BTW.
