By a guy with very gentle hands...

A very big thank you to Noel for helping me get a few more steps away from everyone else with my mad jdm-ish tails and UK badge...

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I love the way it turned out!

Looking good, Scott. Guys, just to let you know, I didnt use paint like everyone else did. I'm just using transparent red vinyl overlays that I cut in order to make the lines exactly as the JDM VII taillight. It took me atleast 30 minutes to cut a set and 1 hour max to install them on the taillight.

I guess if you want them like that, I can do them for you then just like I did to mine and Scott's taillight.

You guys can paint the lens on the outside if you do not want to crack it open. I did it on mine and it came out damn nice. The testors candy apple red looks perfect and comes out smooth. Cost is 4.99 and you only need one can. The Paint bites good into the plastic if cleaned properly and you wont need to worry about it coming off. Remeber to clean well with denatured alcohol and tape off the turn signal with pinstripe tape or good masking tape. I, personally, dont like or trust cracking open any light. It just never looks the same and Ive seen a few already start leaking(fogging up).

Thanks, John. With the condition of my hand right now, I can only do the VII replica. It is easier and faster than taking the taillight apart, paint the chrome black and seal them back which takes 1 whole day to do it. As gofaster said, some of them have had fogged and moisture inside which is not everyone wants. I rather suggest the VII replica. Ive been liking them eversince I got them.
