Lights Project

[Black Turbo LTZ]

Well I decided on Thursday night that I would re-do my amber corner lights that I ran for the better part of last summer that I then removed in the fall due to chipping and the lights being to cloudy...After buying the candy orange clear I decided that the tails needed love to...thus my project, Amber Corners and full Red upper tails with carbon wrap and fresh coats of P-dip for the surround and rings. Heres the results...


Tails

Corners

The Tails were done last night so only one is done and I'll take pics once they are wetsanded and buffed with re-install on the car.

I bought amber paint for my fogs...but then I just bought amber vinyl overlays (not sure how the paint will hold up to heat)
I was thinking of ambering my corners too..

Quit having the most kick ass Sonic here, give some of us 'Non Canadians' a chance!!!

That's a kick ass car amigo!

I don't often say this around here, because I'm really not a fan of most visual mods that people like to do to the Sonics, but I'm really digging that front end. It looks tidy and well executed without going over the top; subtle.

Thanks for the compliments, the emblem and mustache are carbon wrapped, the emblem surround,headlight rings and fog surround are dipped, the grill contour is satin black...essentially I used different contrasts of black to make it stand out without standing out if that makes sense.

What's pulling it off are the wheels and suspension. All together it looks great

did you paint over the rear turn signal?????

The rear upper circle(brake lights, turn signals) is painted with Candy red clear

oh, the ring around the reverse lights is just reflective? (I don't look at the back of my car enough!)

Ya its only reflective, I wrapped it so the difference in redness wouldn't be noticeable.
