okay i read about this one thing on redding tails...where u had to buy translucent tape...anyone know where to buy some of this crap??i cant happen to find any...that or will red tint work???anyone in here ever red out their tails??soo many mods not enough money!!!

 

Why red them out when you can clear out the orange?

 

My tails are red and I did not use tape, I used translucent red model spray and clearcoat. If you want pics and a how to, please email me and I can sent them to you. I think it turned out great!

 

I have OEM 96-97 Clear Outer Tails on my car and love them. I still have my stock Tails and I plan on keeping them because a while back Dr. Monkey and I were talking about Mods and he showed me pics of his Red-Out Tails and they were hot. His tails came out so hot for a cheap, easy, inexpensive Mod to do. This way I'll have 2 sets of Tails on my hands to interchange whenever I get the urge to do so. Trust me, his Outer tails came out very nice and classy. It actually reminded me of a Diamante's Back a little, but better.

 

I have this done on my car as well. I used red spray paint the first two times (had to do it twice because I didn't clear coat it and it eventually faded). The last time I did it, I used this small can of what seemed to be specialized for this purpose - it was red tail light paint with clear coat additive. It has held up GREAT and looks awesome - I get compliments constantly.

There's really no how to needed - just make sure you cover up the rear end of the car real well because you will get overspray if you do it outside (and even if you don't).

I say this every time someone asks about this: on my particular color car, I think the red tails look better than the clear ones. If I had a black or silver car, I'd definitely go with clears. Check out my CarDomain site for pics: http://members.cardomain.com/shiftinfiniti

 

Thanks for the compliments Max Mutes. I will be happy to show pics to anyone who wants to see how they came out. Just email me so i can email you pics.
