I painted the tail lights to look like a SE model, here is a side by side, opinions wanted

 

nice did u paint the inside or outside of the tail light?

 

Well I like the black better than the red, but I don't really like the black ones on light colored cars.

 

did the outside, i almost broke it with the oven way, i got rack marks on the lens

 

The black looks great.

 

looks good..

 

Yeah black looks much better than red. I like the clears, though, overall. When you gonna do the other one lol

 

holy crap... im swagger jacking, is it those pep boys can paint???

 

I did this and a couple of months later the paint did a leather crackle effect and just bought the black tails for 30 from a junk yard

 

Black SE tails FTW.... nice.

Did you clearcoat it as well?? I sure hope so

 

leave 1 black and the other normal....

 

I just finished the other side, looks sweet hehe, its that paint for plastics from dupont i think, or krylon, something Fusion its called.

small vid of my engine knocking sound and the one taillight painted.

i did for about 2 hours while i ran to get new bulbs because one burned out when i took them out. no brake or turn signal lol and one black light, ppl where probally thinking wtf. Going to go take a shot of it completed, bb soon lol.

 

 

i liked it better red.

 

looks great bro

 

GREAT job Prof.....Once you add that spoiler to the mix it will look SICKKKKKKK........

 

Iam liking the clears you have hehe, wanna trade

 

the black tails always look better
no matter what color your car is IMO

 

it looks good but somehow looks plain.I think its the car color(dark color wud be hotter) or need for atleast a lip on the back. Nice job newayz.

 

Almost looks like the other OEM taillights.

 

looks good.

blacked out>red

 

+1 so much better black than red, beleive me

 

 

its a hard decision. i like the black or the red on your color car but i LOVE the cleared out ones. there is this guy on here that sold his max a little while ago and i loved his car with the clears. but overall the black looks good.

 

Good job man. It looks exactly like the stock SEs, can't even really tell it was painted. Black taillights FTW.

If everything goes well...I could see it this sunday.

 

NAAAAAA,I think I'll stick with my stockies

 

If you look close up you can tell, its not perfect, i scratched the lens, got oven rack marks on one lol and cracked the corner. ouch.

 

Hey Prof,did you get your sound system fixed yet,cuz if you did,Millersville ain't gonna know what hit em.....yep yep........................

 

its semi fixed, my amp had a internal meltdown, fried some components and burned traces on the board. I have a surprise, if i can get it in before then, lets just say the subwoofer alone weighs almost 80 pounds.

 

Hey Tom, Look


You can guess the rest ^_^

 

D--D-DD--D-D-D-D-DDAMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN


how big is that thing?......... 22"????????? .....................that thing is gonna pound

i can't wait to hear

 

just a 12 inch , weighs like 80 pounds, 2000 Watts RMS 4 voice coils

 

<---- Super Black 00 Gxe with red LED tails. Bada ba ba ba Im Lovin IT.

 

looks good

 

nice work...looks pretty good but i think the 02-03 clear ones will look good with your color car? your paint is not transparent huh? i notice the black color on the se tails are transparent...looks sort of like carbon fiber.

 

nice mod. Price effiecient and a drastic change. Good Bang for the buck IMO.

 

Yeah i was thinking of the clears from 02-03s but iam getting alot of comments on the blacked out ones.

 

Wish that was the case here, I visited 4 major junk yards, and all i found was one destroyed 5th gen and a 4th gen but it dident look like anything was wrong with it, the 5th gen got raped bad of everything.

 

SE tails are FTW

painted the GLE tails on my 00 and bought them for my black 02
