Just smoked my side markers and tail lights
Hey guys, just smoked my side markers and tail lights. What do you think? I like the flush black look so I painted the chrome as well. Now I am debating on what to do with the bowties.

Can you post a pic with your brake lights on from the same distance, and also a couple hundred feet away? I'm going to be smoking my lights too but am not sure whether to paint or vinyl...

Hey Culb I will do that when I take some more pics. The weather is really bad down here in FL right now. It looks so clean with paint and was told it would be more durable, but I have also seen vinyl and they both look really good.

GB, the police could have a field day with every single one of the lights on my car lol. Your ride looks very nice, i'm torn on going with the heritage grill myself. Did you powder coat or paint your calipers? You have so many mods I couldn't find it in the build thread !!!!

What clearcoat did you use?

The emblems look much better black instead of gold. Good choice on that. I just ordered the ghosted black side markers so I won't have to paint those, but I still need to do my bow ties and tail lights. Still unsure whether to do paint or vinyl. How is the paint holding up on your tail lights? Any police or visibility problems?
