EXT: 1990/1991 Amber Bumper Lights.

[C91BLX7]

Materals
1990/1991 Bumper lights of course
Rubbing Alcohol
Sandpaper/Steel Wool
Transparent Orange Stained Glass. (Found at most arts and crafts stores)

The same thing can be done on stock/clear corners!



First start by taking out the lights and somewhere suitable for painting. Make sure its a Dry, warm, WELL VENTILATED, clean place that will yield desired results.
The lights are Held in by one screw. For more info refer here.http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...ghlight=bumper

First, Prep the surface buy cleaning it with rubbing alcohol. Then if you want lightly scuff the surface. (I did not and and fine results.), If you do scuff them be sure to clean them once more.


Second, Begin loading on the layers. Do lots of little coats rather than less big coats.


Keep spraying until the desired color is reached.


Let dry for a few hours. Then install and bam. Your done

so you sprayed that on the outside of the lens? i might have to do this since i've yet to install my new replacement bumper signals.

I'd spray the inside if you want it to last longer

the paint tends to fade and wear off.

Or you could just put some clear over it.

I did this about 7 months ago with vans ebay paint and mine have held up fine.

Just did this today, about 4 hours ago I started and just waiting for them to dry. Also did this to an extra set of corner lenses I have so we'll see how that turns out.
