Very cool! Did you paint them on the inside, or outside?

They look pretty good....you should take another pic with the hatch closed and your plate up (just blur the plate number).

you should paint the reverse lights red and piggy back the bulb to the brake lights...then put low wattage fog lights hidden under the bumper wired to the revers light harnes...that way its solid red accros the back

nice dude! i just did this mod a month ago, and mine turned out great; just like urs did! looks almost the same; factory looking

so much better than having a rainbow of colors on the back

(red,red,red,orange,white,black,yellow LP,black, white,orange,red, red,red

dude, we gotta meet up one day at one of the NJ meets when i finally get my car painted, weve done a bunch of the same stuff to our cars.

Nice! So, how did you remove the amber before painting the red? Inquiring minds wanna know; I might do it to my Jeep!

Ah, very cool! I'm surprised you were able to change the amber to red just by spraying a few coats over it. I think I'm gonna do it to the Jeep once Mother Nature decides to let things warm up for good here.
