i'm using krylon exactly other guy posted. but newer version of the bottle.... great stuffs... u can use that to spray on glass for frosted glass also ....just 3 thick coats and fast drying... and u dont have to take out tail lights to paint. its better tape it.. i just want to take out to get experience DYI... for those of you that skeptical about the looks ... trust me you guys going to like it a lot.... just do it if u dont like it just use alcohol or paint thinner wipe off...

i just noticed you did it over the redouts! did the texture stay the same as the matte on the plastic part of the tail light?

I just found out that aerotect makes an overlay vinyl film for the 06-08
taillights only..

http://www.aerotect.net/Frostbite.html
(link only shows the film but I spoke to Francisco at aerotect and confirm they do make it for our taillights)

its like $60 bucks but better than the spray IMO..
Maybe we can set a group buy so that they can give up a discount?
