cool :thumbsup: the only heads up i got are to put the headlight in the middle of the oven so nothing burns. and also, when you bake it the second time and putting it back together, do it fast b/c that glue cools down fast! :rofl:

i mean that most people (including me) just paint the turn signal area cause they don't want to mask it off :)

I tried to mask the signal area when I did mine, but, when I took the tape off, it pulled some of the reflective part off with it. So, I just painted the whole thing black, and it still reflects fine at night...

nice looking car Chris... you will find this site to be very helpfull and welcome to 6thgen....

yeah, i was cleaning mine before painting, and made the mistake of using the rough side of a scotch pad :(

it started taking silver off, so i just sprayed it all black :)

turn signal still shows up pretty well anyways
