Smokin' Sexy TAIL Lights + All BLACK GRILL. [ DIY Guide] (PiX)

Just finished doing the tail lights and at the same time FINALLY the front grill.





Step 1: Buy the spray tint, either from ebay or your local tunning shop.

Step 2: Get garbage bags, blue painting tape, knife, paper towels, rubbing alchy just incase.. I didnt want to take out the lights, so I didnt have to spend time adjusting it later.

Step 3: Cut one of the bags so its a big thing of plastic. Tape it over your light and hood fender area.



Step 4: Cute out the shape of your tail lights then use the blue tape to tape the plastic bag to the car, clean the lights well.

Step 5: Shake the can and spray from a foot away. One coat, nice and easy all over the lense. If you do it too much it will run and it looks ugly. (My right one ran so I had to redo it twice. Have rubbing alchy and paper towls ready just dump alchy on the paper and rub away, it will come off.)



Take your time, I did about 6 coats. Really though take your time with it, do one light coat wait 10 min to dry then do another.

Step 6: Carefully take everything off and enjoy.



The front grill just take it off your car. And spray it somewhere. Let it dry for a few hours before touching and reinstalling it.
