    They look good from those pics. You should have painted the amber part red.

    i airbrushed them lol i took the lens off tapped the reverse light cut off the reflectot lens with a small grinder then i had a kuston colors little bottle like 8oz of paint added a lil thinner and sprayed them i used the sun to check to see if you could still see thru but looked way darker weni put them on the truck lol but as long as they light up:lol: but im sure using regular paint would work to thats how i sprayed my front turn signals painted the inside so i would get the smooth outside look any gloss paint should do it jus spray frm a distance
