    smoked the tailights today

    <img src=http://img27.photobucket.com/albums/v80/kansas-ix/the_caddy_007.jpg>
    How do they look? good? bad? ugly?
    I know the car is dirty as HELL!
    Iam also well aware of the paint that is coming off, just waiting till I get to that optimal point of having little to no paint left, leaves less sanding this fall when I repaint the car, and pull off the pin stripe.

      actually that shot killed the battery in the digi cam, sorry. but from an 30* angle they appear pretty black. Used the modelmasters testors the candy apple transperant to do the turn signals.

        Are they even, or is it just the angle?

          i'm pretty sure its the angle because when I was looking at them when I took the picture the one on the right looked darker but in the picture the left looks darker, I'm gonna evaluate over the next few days and give which ever side needs it a light touch up if needed.

          100th post!

          Its the setting sun coming across the car the angle.

            The tail lights look pretty good for a spray tint job.

            How is the condition of your cardinal interior? I've yet to see one in good shape.

              In all honesty, I can't tell that they're smoked.

                    Still tough to see. Could just be my monitor settings.

                      The only thing that looks smoked to me is the reverse lights.

                          Yes, I can see that they are red. But they still don't look smoked to me. But that's just my opinion. If you like the way they look, that's awesome! :up:

                            Ohhh shit I get it, that pic you posted (the small one) was a before shot.


                            Well then, nice red tails, but I still can't tell they're smoked, except for the reverse lights.
