    Back with the F150 and this time I'm taking apart the taillights and getting them painted to match the truck.
    Like the headlights I use black rtv to seal them back up

    I was a bit skeptical when I first started watching, but I can't argue with the results. Well done!

      @89imp03 do you think that I could put the tailights in the oven and the cover would come off?

    If the guy also wanted the lens tinted how would you have done that?

    • @89imp03
      @89imp03  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I probably would've used the vht nightshade spray tint. But the best option wouldve been some of the tint film from metrorestyling

      It's got some tabs holding it in place. Try to pry them off on the short side of the reflector and then pull them out

      Haven't heard any bad news from him yet. I sealed my Vette taillights the same way about 2 years ago and they haven't had any issues
