    Hydrodipping this GSR valve cover in carbon fiber with a red tint.
    We used a epoxy primer, VHT high temp spray paint, Duplicolor red high temp tint spray paint, and automotive clear. The results are well worth the brutal prep work. Thanks for watching!

    Red metalcast is my go-to for turning amber sections of stock taillights to red for a cleaner look.
    Throw some clear over it for protection and it'll still have an amber glow when illuminated.
