Stockers


Baked and pulled apart


taped off sections that were to be left chrome


got the supplies ready to sand, prime and paint


lightly scuffed with 1000grit sand paper


2 coats of sandable primer


4 light coats of semi gloss black




pulled the tape off after couple hours of drying


applied the amber reflector back in


baked and sealed again




time to lightly buff the scratches on the lens






POW!

Want to do this sooooo damn bad but I just don't trust myself

 

It's not a difficult task at all. Just time consuming. Patience is key.

I also painted my lights a while back too:

 

looks great.

Nice work! I had mine done by EvoDave a LONG time ago....I've since replaced them back to new stockers and want to do this too !!!

What temp did you bake them at first and then when you sealed them back up?

Thanks!!

 

220 for 10 minutes and the same to re seal

 

Thank you!

 

I also did it too. Took me a while. But the end result was amazing !

 

Nice work Lu, you are becoming quiet the handyman these days.
