hey guys ive noticed that DJ_Tantony has his corners amber. when i asked he said i he painted them but i noticed we dont have reflectors on our corners so i dont think it would look good to paint over the chrome .. Does any 1 know how his came out so nice .. Or have DYI for ours?

i'll do a DIY. it's basically original orange paint. just a special type of orange where it could reflect. i would spray my 'Stained Glass Orange Spray' but it doesn't glare much light as this other orange spray paint. i'll make one soon.

yea, it's not a reflector. i think they DO sell those reflector paints but why wasting money for that type of paint when your just going to use it once. i'll do it project when i get back from Atlanta either on friday or saturday. but it's basically a simple orange spray paint. like for my white housing, i painted a high temp white spray paint. and look how the orange reflected on the white housing. just need the time and money.
