Nice DIY for the tails.....however i kinda like the Krylon red stained glass paint instead of the candy apple paint. The red stained glass paint just looks a tad bit better......anyone agree?

Those look real nice! Were there any fish-eye's or drips in the coating of the tails?

Not bad looking. Did it effect brake lighting at all?
