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

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

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.

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.

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?

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

I know the paint code is on the sticker in the door panel, but which number is the paint code?

The S might want tinted tails! They are clear lens, but I don't want them quite as dark as your red Talon. Recommendations?

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.
