Rep Power: 378

I searched and looked an what not and I can't remember if someone has posted this and I'm not sure if it's in the right Category so I'll just ask. Has anyone cracked open their Altezza's and painted the chrome like people do with their headlights. I was tinkering with the idea. Mmm, what you guys think?

with all the leaking problems people have with them, you think its a good idea?

It's probably a better idea because you will have to re seal them and atleast you will know you did it right and use a lot of sealant![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

That's true. I have'nt had any leakage problems yet. I guess I would just do it the same way people are doing the front ones. Crack them apart and just use that high temp. paint. I Photoshop it later and see how it looks. If it looks aight, I'll probably post it.

im gonna paint my altezzas white, painted the front lights white and looks hella nice so doin the tezzas....prob is i cant figure how to get them apart....maybe if i bake them for alittle they will come out but damn they look alot harder than the stock headlights

Pedrito painted his altezzas as well....i talked to him.

Mine was a weatherproof seal that I used to seal up my altezzas...

Because I don't like that whole CF look. I just want black. I think that would look sweet. I'll have to try and as that Pedrito guy how he went about doing it.

I know I remember when I did my Headlights people were like all looking I found it hillarious, hes tearing apart that brand new ride but the end results were awesome. Yeah I like to be different instead of just ordering the plain old Altezzas that anyone can order, still love my OEM Tails though.

hahaha Fraga u r hella funny dude, Pedrito said he baked his lights in the oven to loosen the glue then pulled apart....worked for the headlights so im assuming same for the tails. Im giving it a go wedsnesday hopefully the shop will fix my neon kit soon enough to where i have plenty of time to work on it. I think thats all Pedrito did though, bake and pull apart, be careful though, he cracked his but said u cant notice unless u r up on it. My headlights look bada$$ so im doin the tails...plus it looks weird, front lights r white, back ones still have chrome...no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
