Looks great bro glad everything worked out. What I might do is create a how-to instructional since a lot of guys have asked me. Then a lot of guys will probably do their taillights themselves instead of going to me..but oh well. frown

Thanks for the props for guiding you through this rolleyes

hardest part in painting them was gettin the painters tape lined up on the reverse section, but painting it not a big problem. you mess up just wetsand it down and put another coat , wetsanding was a key thing to make them look great after doing these tails i feel like i can paint anything

Honestly, your fogs turned out a lot better than I thought they would when I initially read this post. I just don't like how they clash with your blue parking lights. (sorry I'm anal about that stuff)

Interesting mod though smile
