Smoked Taillights

OK,

Does anyone know where I can buy the spray paint to smoke stock taillights. Is it available at Lordco? Does anyone how much it goes for, and are there any special preperations that you need to take before spraying the lights. Let me know.

Please keep in mind I am in Surrey, but I do drive to Richmond every weekend.

Thanks a bunch everyone.

Any particular stores in Richmond. Richmond is a large place that I am not all that familiar with (directions would be much appreciated).

Thanks

Hey Pukuyo,

The APC's look great, I just wanted to get a little creative with smoking my tails. I am gonna try something different in smoking the tails. I am not going to smoke the whole thing so in the day time you see both red and black.

If the smoking doesn't work I am going to go to TYC tails. I have a black Veloz so I want black tails, Just my preference, my friends all have APC's. Trust me there is nothing wrong with the APC's.

See you on Friday.

sorry, i havent been to richmond for a long time.

Anyway, if u are going on 91, just turn left on #3 road, and follow the road.

it's call Revolution, www.604racing.com is their website (i think)
edit: checked their website. the smoke dont seem to be there [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]


Parker Place is near Garden City road (I think).

Hey JDQuickCivic,

Thanks for the offer. By the time I got your message I ahd already purchased 2 cans. I got everything done and I am more than happy. I blacked everything out except for the horseshoe. Looks great on an EBP Veloz.

I think it is original.

I'll try to get some pics to get everyone's opinion.

Thanks to everyones replies, and thanks to Pukuyo (James)

James,

Good to hear that you are happy with how the lights look, and thanks for the compliment on the smoked taillights. It was no problem coming out to Coquitlam, I was already on the road coming back from Richmond and had to take the Mrs. out shopping anyways. If you need anything give me a hollar, you got the number.

Peace
