New brake lights

Here are the new lights I got from Cougar8775. I took them apart, removed the reflector, used "chrome":giggle: spraypaint, to re"chrome" the inside. Also I added the silver stripe, and reinstalled the sequencial turn signals.

Not even close. That stripe on the lights was painted with the chrome paint.

Alclad Chrome will give you the closest thing to a chrome finish without spending hundreds of dollars on Alsa's chrome paint or real chrome plating. It brushes on over a glossy black base coat and gives a pretty fair reflection for its price ($10). Just thought I'd share in case anyone wanted a paint with a real reflection ;)
