i dont know about everyone else, but the stock evo 8 taillights werent the pride and joy of this car. i didnt have much to get some different taillights so i went out and bought a $25 can of taillight spraypaint and it did the job right.

$25 Can of spraypaint


stock taillights...too ricey


after i sprayed them




let me know what you think!!!

 

Looks good!

Is that a GE washer?

 

did you have to sand them? You sprayed the outside or inside?

 

Looks good... how long did it take? Did you have to bake them or just put a few coats on and let it dry?

 

Now get a shorty antenna and that thing will look perfect from the back.

 

i didnt sand them cause i was afrain of even scratching the lenses the slightest and when i paint them it would show. i cleaned real good, n then taped up the turn signal which was kinda hard cause the turn signal actually has a curve in it n i used ****ty tape, then i sprayed 2 coats on each lense, took about an hour in all to do it. kinda look like evo 7 taillights for only 25$ lol.

 

Man they look really good.

 

Where'd you get the paint?

 

too bad your reverse lights are now red

 

 

They look good and for the amount you spent you can't go wrong. Keep us posted on how they look over time.

 

a speed shop out in NJ. but most places get them, they also come in yellow and smoked.

 

how well would this hold up?

 

My friends used this on their 240's. I also used the orange from the same brand on my fender corner lights. Seems to hold up pretty well.

 

Anybody ever thought of leaving a circle out for the reverse lights? or would that seem too ricey?
