you can use the paint for stained glass. just make sure to clean the tail lights' surface.
the stained glass paint can be bought at any canadian tire store.
im sure there are others that have diefferent suggestions.

thanks man,
the light heat dosent burn the paint away?

no not really, but it will fade after a while, maybe 4-6 months depending on the quality of the job u did. but otherwise ull be fine. the paint is like 5-6 bucks i think. if u want it shiny spray some clear coat.

Forget paying someone do it yourself.

Go to Almost any Art or Hobbie store and Buy Testorts (Spelling) Transparent Candy Apple Red. (Closest Colour Match)



Steps 2 Use

1. (You can an if you like) Use A VERY VERY Light grad sand paper to sand off some of the light. This will make the paint stick a bit better.

2. Clean Lights Very well

3. Tape up all areas you don't want painted.

4. With very small and light burst spray light with first coat.

5. Allow light to dry 15-20 min

6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 3-4 Times

7. Use step 4 to apply Clear coat

8. Remove Tape and TAADAA.

Good Luck

Rich Hope this will HELP.

All the advice i can give is....
Remember SiR tail lights are red on top of white.
On your car is will have to be white on top of the red.
EDIT here is the pic
