thanks, i got the paint at the hobby store, i think tamiya makes sprays, but i got the one in the bottle and used my airbrush. I'm probly gonna spray my car a light color, like yellow, white or red.

the paint was like 3 bucks, but you need some way to spray it on if you get it in the bottle.

that looks reallt good... nice job.. i was thinkign of blacking out my sidemarkers and turns up front.. then instead i cleared them..
but now i sold my clear turns and i'm stuck with a set of mercedes clear sides...
so i'd like to amber them.. that'd be really good.

anyways... thanx for the inspiration if you dont mind me copying.

Sorry to sound ignorant, but whats up with this amber trend? first everyone wants clear, now that some manufacturers do take the liberty of making lenses clear on cars, people purposely want amber? heh i guess. :rolleyes:

good now you guys can trade turns signals with the UK 200sx owners since they have orange turn signals and want your clears!. :)
