Do you have any pictures of your Talon so people can get a feel for what 3 coats will look like?

had to resize the pic from when I posted them when I pained the car last year.

*Also if I get enuff call for it I would be willing to go out and get a set of each style dsm tails and do a good core from yours so you would just have to exchange them and not wait

I might want my 2 rear tails done lightly. Maybe 2 coats?

Do you do anything different than we would if we did our own?

TkrPerformance 05-09-2007 12:43 PM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
it is not from a spray can. I am a body tech/painter so it is automotive paint and clear coat

asshanson 05-09-2007 06:41 PM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
96 Talon tails + the 2g center section where it says TALON + my clear corners

3 coats.

I can give them to you any Tuesday that you'll be at bees and pick them up after they're done. Count me in for ANY weekend you'll have enough people, I will make the effort to get them to you.

I'm in, and I'll even help you spray them if enough people decide they want it done.

TkrPerformance 05-09-2007 07:05 PM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights

2 for sure

How much to paint my center light maroon like my car?

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
Just thought I'd post a picture of the tails I bought from Mark a while back. I don't know if they are 3 or 4 coats. They look great, but are a touch dark. Turn signals are kind of hard to see in the daylight. If you want the blacked out look, this is about right. If you want tint, but great visibility, I'd go 1 coat lighter.

Please ignore the dirt. It's been ugly since the rally in Cannon Falls.

Mark consider me in. I'll drop them off before I leave for AZ on Tuesday. I'll bring the money for the Overflow as well. I'm torn between 3 coats or 2 coats though.

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
I can do your center the oem color I will need a paint code for the car to see what the paint price will be.

the tails that you got have 4 coats on them sence that is what the guy wanted done to them. they are almost black outs. On mine with the 3 coats you can see the brake and turn lights just fine.

you can also put in bright white bulbs in the tails if you wanted to go dark.

Just let me know what you want 2 or 3 brandon

Do you know of anywhere to get reasonably priced Grand Prix taillights, Mark?

TkrPerformance 05-09-2007 09:10 PM

I can look around for you

That'd be much appreciated. I never found any that weren't cracked and/or horrifically expensive.

HiImBrian 05-09-2007 10:06 PM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
I know the paint code is on the sticker in the door panel, but which number is the paint code?

Kracka 05-09-2007 11:52 PM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
The S might want tinted tails! They are clear lens, but I don't want them quite as dark as your red Talon. Recommendations?

TkrPerformance 05-10-2007 07:39 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
not to sure I will have to look at the spyder to see what one is the paint code.

I am doing a set of clear mustang tails with 4 on it. I will be the same as about 3 on red tails.

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
it would be same as the tails. That would need more prep work than a set of tails

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
looking at 75.00 for the just paint you would get the rest that is not used

HiImBrian 05-12-2007 11:08 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
Buzzkill. That's kinda a lot and I don't have anything else I would even need the extra paint for. I'll keep ya in mind though.

auto paint is not cheap.

TkrPerformance 05-14-2007 11:52 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
I have all the stuff to do it sence I have done a few now.

TkrPerformance 05-14-2007 11:54 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights

Hey, sorry I didn't make it out Friday like I planned. I got the seven nuts off the left tail light, but the inside still seemed to be held on to the center section or something. I'll have to take out the sub and trunk board so I can removed those plastic panels back there. Hope I figure out how to get it all off and have them ready on Tuesday.

kennydawgg 05-14-2007 08:29 PM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
does anyone have pics of this done on a 2g?

is it just plain black auto paint? or is it a special paint?

Halon 05-15-2007 07:17 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
Taillights have been dropped off. I'll be gone for 2 weeks, so I hopefully can pick em up when I get back. Thanks man

TkrPerformance 05-15-2007 07:44 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights

I have not done a 2g yet sence I have not goten all the tails yet that people want done.
it is not just black auto paint or the tint you can buy in a spray can.
it is all ppg automotive paint and clear coat

asshanson 05-15-2007 11:56 AM

Re: we will try this a 2nd time tinting of tail and other lights
 
I got them off! You will have them tomorrow at bees, I'll pick them up later in the week. I'll take a picture before and after with them on the car so people can see what 3 coats looks like on a 2g.

Some pictures. The first is before the tinting in some low light, the second is in direct sunlight with tint, and the last is in similar light as the first.

Sorry for the low quality camera phone pictures.

Hey Andrew, how many coats was that?

Any pics of mine mark? I went with 2 coats.
