I was just wondering if anyone has a DTM tails with red/clears or homemade clears? Pics? Just want to see how that looks with the dark behind the clear lens.

what in the world is DTM tails? i'm curious to know what it looks like too......

 

Im assuming you mean smoked red/clears? if so someone had recently posted some pictures of this. Might be a few pages in though.

DTM = Dallas Taillight Mod

 

Another DTM shot...in Dallas.



(the hazards were on since I was on the bridge...that is what the red lights you see are)

 

Gotta love 95/96 DTM!

Booya!



damn what a sweet ***!



EDIT: The write up for DTM is in my sig!
If you have any questions on how to do it, please let me know.

 

here you go one mo on black car

 

Damn what a sweet ride... who helped you do those tails?

oh wait... it was me! we need another snow day. haha

 

lol yes we do !!

 

Not the greatest pic

 

wow that's hot... i haven't seen it on green yet...

 

**** is boss!

How bright do the turn signals and reverse lights look through the smoked clears? Pics of that? In MrEous's shot with the Dallas skyline, you can see two reddish spots in the signals. Is that just the bulbs reflecting light or are they on?

 

I have red Polarg bulbs in my rear turn signals that almost match the tail light color.

 

Thanks for the pics guys, but I was wondering if you had the clear plastic piece still in there or not. The DTM mod says to remove the turn signal piece and the reverse light piece. I can't really tell from the pictures, if you had red/clears, did you just paint the inside of the housing and put the clear piece back in?

I have DTM also, I just wanted to see what that would look like since I don't have red/clears.

Below the pic I added that my hazards are on (since I was on the bridge)...the camera caught the lights while they were on.

(I got the bulbs off of eBay for about $5shipped.)

 

To all who have the dtm tail lights......
What kind of paint did you guys use?? and where did you get it? did you do it on the outside or inside?

 

The tails become diamond red/clears when you are done with the process. The inside of the tail is kinda ugly, and painting it makes a huge difference. The paint is simple flat black paint you can buy at Autozone. I think that's where I bought mine. Check the write up.

edit: yes, you just take the stock orange (on the signal) and clear (reverse) part out and paint the inside of the housing. we painted these outside to avoid fumes and painting the inside of my house. haha

Did you have any problems with them fading and turning orange or pink?

 

Those are nice.

 

when you paint the orange lense, you can't tell it's orange. doing red/clears would be more money for the same result. my outer (orange) lense matches my inner (clear) lense.

 

Huh? Paint the orange lense? Why would you do that? With DTM you simply pull that part out and throw it away. It's not used in the DTM.

I'd be curious to see a pic of a set of tails with the clear and orange part painted...

 

blue bob, for odd reason, the last pic on the right in ur sig makes ur car look like a convertible
