Check it out guys,
Wondering how this was done. See how the usual white bottom section of the rear lights is tinted red? How do you think this was done?
Looks good.
Lost contact with the bloke so don't know how it was done.

I want to achieve something similar because the new sigma garnish will have "light-orange" at the bottom section instead of standard clear white, so i'll need to do something like this to blend it all together :sook:

Cheers

Here are some photos of what i'm talking about and one photo of the standard garnish which i'm comparing.

I'm sure there must be some toy/model paint out there that could do the job, there should be a red transparent one available?

Speaking of which, who else reckons every early 90's (don't know the model) commodore should have their tail-lights recalled and replaced? Probably at least half of the ones I see have the colour so faded they are almost white...

I agree and you be talking about VN's and VP's dodgy as. plus half the time when they put their foot on the break at night, half the lights go out.

apparently thats because they've had them replaced with non geniune ones which are just crap and fade.

And Dimi - i thought thats how all sigma taillights came out :S
