Tinting factory tailights?

[sewlow]

Yes!
Goes in the body shop, finally, on the 15th! I'm outa town for 10 days, so that's as good a time as any. Complete paint. As much as I didn't want to get it painted, but it's gotta be done. That's original 1997 paint in that pic.

The paint looks good on it in the pic. What color are you gonna do?

 

[sewlow]

Insurance job. Same color. Medium bright blue metallic. '97 only.
Only thing that I haven't removed as far as logos is the big, huge, large, white 'Chevrolet' on the tailgate.
Only reason it's not off, is that the ghost of it would look worse. So it's gonna be gone. Yes!
Got some test panels of the color with 3 different sizes of metallic. The original is the smallest. Havin' a tough time deciding between the 2 larger ones.
The dif. in size is like microns. Don't know if the largest would be too much. Or if it's even gonna make that much difference.

I would do a smaller flake, never really cared for big flakes, they are to noticeable imo, smaller flake is just a shimmer but big flake you can see

Big flake? Like 'East L.A., aye carumba, ******, that's a mucho loco Chebby, Chu wanna jUmp?' flake?
Nah, nothing like that.
This is it now.
