I've red the How-to article but Im wondering something:
Do I need to paint the exterior,the interior or both sides of the lights (I know it may sounds stupid but I cant find the answer anywhere)? |

In the article, it says:
"Once you're done with the transparent red coats and the paint is fairly dry, you should take off the tape that's covering the reverse light area and spray on a few clear coats to protect the paint and keep your lights shiny." Why should we take off the tape that's covering the reverse light area before spraying the clear coat? Should I "clearcoat" all the light (reverse light area too)? or just the part I've painted red? |

Yeah, just the outside.....make sure you clearcoat it. I didn't clearcoat mine and they faded in about a year. Now I need to redo it.
