The paint is called Testor's Transparent Candy Apple Red, it comes in a 85g spray can (fairly small) and the number on the top of the can is 1605.
Method:
1. You will need to clean your tails with some type of cleaning solution, windex or whatever.
2. Tape your backup lights. this might take a while to get the curves just right, but this is a very important step, so make sure you do it well, to ensure that no paint seeps into clear part of the backup light area. you also might want to take a garbage bag and tape it to the edging of your car, just for protection for your paintjob. theres not really a need to take them out as you would if you were vinyling them out.
3. Spray a thin coat onto the turn signal, spraying over the edges onto the garbage bag. The paint says 2 hours between coats, but you can do it within 20-30 minutes or so, you can tell when it dries because it becomes whitish (sort of).
4. Spray two more even coats onto this area after the previous one dries.
5. When the final coat has dried, use 3-4 coats of clearcoat (best if used 4), to give the shiny look.
6. Remove the garbage bags and tape after the clearcoat has dried.
and thats it your done!
This is a very cheap mod to do, and looks absolutly great! i think any six, stock or modded should have these candy apple red tails. they just look great! and yes your turn signals WILL FLASH RED!!!!
have fun painting those rear tails!!!
