painted jdm tails

just painted my tails yesterday, i like love the way they look, not as perfect as the real ones, but hey ... still better than stock, i know i went a lil over the edge on the orange , i used engine enamel wich is good because off all the heat, just sprayed a thin coat which makes it transperant , a little blurry when the light is on but it does the work, here are a couple of pics , hope you like them, let me know what yall think , thanks
ps. sorry for the pics quality, iphone doesnt really have that great of a camera even tough its a 2mp
