I am completely baffled. While I too loathe the orange strip why would you paint it silver?

Further, it appears as if that is a solid enamel eliminating the majority of light output arguably posing a hazard...

No. We are concerned that light will not pass through paint and clearcoat. This poses notable concern in regard to legality and safety nevermind the peculiar choice of color.

No.

I think your nail looks better than your tail lights.. (and that's definately one weird nail you've got there buddy)
