Hey Barry,Do you have a "how-to" on these lights? They look awesome! I don't know if I want to use the white or use the black tint spray like Kick a-- Mazda.

Thanks Barry! Where do you recommend buying the vinyl?

well, in my opinion, get the thickest stuff you can find. Thin will tend to weather outside and start to peel, thats why I removed mine. Try Sign shops. YOu can probably use something like this<A HREF="http://www.stickercity.com/ShopKeeper2/ ... ff=default" TARGET=_blank>Sun Visors</A>Its similar to what I used. But I got mine at a performace shopwhen I was in New York on a business trip. Mine was thing though. Find something thick. IF you do find something thick..let me know plz.

hey i did the same thing as barry except i did mine with black vinyl. you can easily find it at a sign shop for less than $5. the hardest part is stretching the vinyl so that it doesn't leave any wrinkles or bubbles. anyway... have you guys ever seen that carbon fiber looking vinyl made by dashwood? i was thinking that would make the taillights look really sweet.

I used a drinking glass. I put the reverse one on 1st, and cut it out. Then I did the rest based off of that one.Just use an exacto knife (hobby knife) to cut it out. Be forewarned this will leave a circle scratch on your lens. Yes the vinyl was already on the car when I cut the circles out.[ April 01, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]

So Barry now that you don't have them on, your tail lights are scratched to hell? OR did you get new ones?

when I cut the vinyl I knew it would scratch so I barley touched the vinyl. My lenses have been polished so I dont have anything on them. there may be 1 or 2 small faint curves in them, but not noticeable unless your right up on it about 3-4 inches away.

<A HREF="http://www.edecals.com/wind/strip.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.edecals.com/wind/strip.htm</A>this is imilar to what I used. you may want to get something as thick as possible.Also, its not a fabric, its more or less a decal or a sticker.
