Been busy today... Pics

Well, I got the driver side sidemarker with the blinker so far, kinda messed it up at first, took longer then should have, cut the stupid blue wire. but its all good now.

then took the backs of my mirrors off(tricky at first) and painted them black, and paint the hatch struts blue.

enough for today lol.

Old Mirrors


New Pics

You should have tinted the side markers while you had them out

I've seen about that, but haven't read up on it, just buy tint from the auto parts store and put tint on it? lol sounds like a stupid question.

Yup that is how easy it is. I would go to Walmart though as it is probably cheaper, maybe

and the struts look awesome

Yeah that's about all there is to it. I bought a smaller roll of 20% from walmart and it worked out pretty good for me. The 20% is dark enough to appear to be black during the day but it will still let enough light through at night

Okkkk,
Got the hood struts, pass sidemarker and the back sidemarkers done! (which I did with no how to, it kind of easier then the front)

the tint was hard so I just skipped it lol.

I want to paint the plastic in the engine area, but cant seem to find high heat plastic paint.

So now your back sidemarkers act as turn signals too?
