84 Tail Lights.. I'm confused August 03, 2007, 08:49:38 PM I know I've posted on my tail lights before, but tonight while washing the car, I discovered not only are they different in apearence, the bird on the driver side is metal, where as the passanger is plastic. Did I miss something here?DRIVER SIDEPASS SIDEI tried a test place to se on the driver side, but found it to be metal. Same for passanger side, but it felt like normal plastic. All the chrome wore off, and it looked more like silver paint then chrome. Now maybe I missed something little here, but can someone help me out Quote Selected

84 Tail Lights.. I'm confused Reply #5 – August 03, 2007, 09:15:28 PM Fair enough. I just was really confused on that part. I'm looking for a matched set of good 83-4 tails if anyone has a set by the way;) Anyways, is there any way to get them to match again, you can very easily tell they are different from a distance, and I wana clean them up / fix them to make it less noticiable Quote Selected

You should be able to tell a car paint tech what you are doing and he will hook you up:birdsmily: Quote Selected
