    For anyone attempting this, if you spray a light coat of the red over the yellow inside the housing, it will make the correct orange color, which the startecs came with.

      Or just use orange colour!

    Nice!!! I love that you show the process. There’s a guy out there trying to sell the same thing you just made for $300+

      @voltairee3012 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah his name is Harun Kaska. Which if you dont mind forking over the money and dont feel like doing this. Solid deal. Besides who knows in another 30 years his reps might be worth 900 and real startecs like 2k. Haha

      Voltaire E30 nah, another dude, his Instagram is Diverse_motors, so idk about that doesn’t seem that special. Don’t get me wrong even I’m interested in doing this. But 400$ + for spray painted 100$ clear lens from eBay?

    • @applesauce6633
      @applesauce6633 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess, gotta respect the hustle. But I’m glad theirs ppl on TH-cam that are willing to show you how it’s done. I respect that more. Diverse_motors acts like its some kind of Secret

      Im not in the budget of being lazy and paying someone for doing the work. Besides many early tails are plenty to be had. And most of them have cracking lenses. Every about my car has been me. Since it was stock. The only thing im not entirely comfortable is tuning once i get ms2 and a 20g. Already prepped it last year with head studs. But tuning ms2 seems pretty intuitive.

    • @applesauce6633
      @applesauce6633 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Voltaire E30 exactlyyyyyyy I completely understand, and that’s how I am too and feel the same way. I rather save money on labor and do it myself. Tuning I would 100% pay for cuz that’s when experience and knowledge comes into play but yeah apparently there is ppl willing to 400$ for someone else to spray paint their lights and Those ppl are ballers, low key jealous of them :/

    Never seen these before. Looks more interesting than the stock look. Just have a couple hopefully constructive additions. The new covers look very wavy. Could sand and buff for a very nice flat smooth look comparable to original. Also, was hoping to see installed and lit up! Still looks good! Nice work!

  • @imSchwaggy
    @imSchwaggy 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    also, with the krylon and vht nightshades, its best u use a blowdrier/heatgun when painting. i have some lights that been sprayed for 8 years havent faded or cracked at all. the headlights i did without the heatgun faded after like 8 months had to redo em.

    Instead of braking the lens you could have baked them to soften the butyl sealant and pulled it off in one piece.

    I love startecs but since they weren't popular, and now rare. Besides they have a cult following now. And i have always loved the look. May have to dabble in doing this for my car. There is a guy i found who will make reps startecs for $400. Huran Kaska is his name.

    Dont paint the indicators yellow - just use an orange bulb instead. Then they will be red and clear like on e46 msports.

    in principle you shouldnt have to use clear coat paint on the lenses. You could have painted with matte red/orange and have better color setup for the taillights :)

    Man, I don't know. Must be an e30 thing.
    I think they look cheap and faded.
    I would have left them clear and used a coloured LED bulb. But each to their own.
