West Coast Customs - Smoked Tail Lights

[Euphorica]

properly smoked. none of that blacked out garbage that people think is "smoked"

[silverrr616]

I ALWAYS WONDERED HOW THEY SMOKED OUT THEIR LIGHTS ON ALMOST ALL THEIR CARS!!!!!!

[YouNewb100]

Or just leave your lights alone, save your cash and get a better car instead of DIYing your piece of shit to look like a "badass" piece of shit!

Remember you're not Vin Diesel and your life isn't "Fast and Furious" LOL

[Bowtie1972]

tinting is NOT allowed depending on the following:

-must be visible from a distance (cant remember) in most cases you cant see crap...

-must REFLECT light (this is the problem most tinted taillights have, they cover the OEM Reflectors)

DOT approved tinted tails are the only safe way to go without risking a 100 USD fine. And those cheap ass chines made aftermarket junk have lots of times DOT on the lens, but that is not correct. Those guys can get away with anything.

needs to be more darker :)



[twofivefourlos]

so i can mix any other color besides black with clear coat and get the same effect in another color? such as white?

[adi2200us]

@twofivefourlos white has high opacity,you

 can try some white pearl instead

[Bowtie1972]

tail light lenses have DOT approval. Smoking them by sprapaint them in a different colour, especially a darker tint might be illegal and considered a crime in some states. FYI.

[DaeHan2321]

@Bowtie1972 Please find that violation where it states you can not tint/smoke your tail lights. As long as you can see the break lights a certain distance and illuminate red you are legal.

[theMoxsie]

easiest way to black your tail lights for cheap is to take a woman's legging fabric and stretch it over the plastic.

[MrHumptdumpty]

I think it was darker before the paint

[preludejunker]

[ezrawwedp]

@preludejunker It's not a gang sign you idiot.

[akamoneymaker100]

[theweber87]

[paintballgundown8]

[ThePrincess2012]

[wildfire758]

@ThePrincess2012 I got mine at Auto Zone for 12 bucks a can and I got some Rustoleum Clear Coat for like 8 bucks a can to protect it

[ThePrincess2012]

@wildfire758 hey thanks did u use paint liner to clean before and sand down the light?

[wildfire758]

@ThePrincess2012 I wet sanded them with 2000 grit then rubbed em down with rubbin alcohol let em dry then hit them with 4 small coats vht and 4 good coats clear then let them dry and rubbed em out with buffin compound.. its really simple and hard to mess up so dont worry about the final outcome.. just use light coats so the paint doesnt drip nd ull be fine

[ThePrincess2012]

@wildfire758 Thanks! This'll be fun! lol

[321AUDIO]

sweet man that looks good (But it is West Coast Customs after all) 

[rasigs]

only thing i can think might help ya is get wet and dry being wet sand it lightly to get the scratches out then re apply ya clear coat if your tail light are dull i also have used tamia model indicator and brake light paint for models works well for modern tail lights hope this helps

[rags17]

hey scott.. could you please help me out here, I sanded painted, clearcoated the tail lights and then with 2000 grit wetsanded again and then polished it with compound. The lights turned out good but when the lights are on you can see the tail light scratches from the sanding, what could I do to fix that? should i clearcoat it again would that help?

[SaintRos95s]

@rags17 buff it with a buffer
