just paint yours, £10 for hammerite, brush and sealer

Job done



loadsa people done this

Youve painted um wrong mate..

Not done the bottom lined section under the lamp, doin that bit is what darkens the lenses

Also painting the little lined bit around the side light section creates a circle effect rather than a thin line

Easy to do though, you'll need a hair dryer, stanley knife, wide flat screw driver & solvent cleaner oh & patience! :wink:

i am so tempted to do them.

is there a link somewhere that tells you how to do it?
i guess you heat up the seal and prise them apart with screw driver. Then clean the seal totally. Then seal them back up with .. what sealent? ohh and of course spray them "properly" (richie :) ) when the they are apart.

It was a little blunt but never mind, I will try and to do it "correctly" if I do them again

I was going to paint the rear area but couldn't be bothered tbh.

Richie, I dont get this bit mate?
