Tamiya model paint works well apparently. Clear orange.

Re: USDM Orange parklights and indicators EF facelift

You mean Blue place? they have moved...the only shops I know of are Toyworld in L/Hutt or there is a model place behind the BNZ...

Tamiya orange huh? and wouldnt it be glossy if I painted the inside and the clear plastic was on the outside?

Re: USDM Orange parklights and indicators EF facelift

I did mine with Tamiya orange. Came out average, but thats because the lights were fUxXd in the first place.

Re: USDM Orange parklights and indicators EF facelift

They are a sealed unit so you can really only paint the outside. I have heard of people heating up the adhesive holding the lens and backing together, and painting the inside... but, sounds like too much hassle to me. I just scotched up the outside, cleaned it well, did a few layers of clear orange, and a fine coat of clear. Then cut and polished them.

Re: USDM Orange parklights and indicators EF facelift

NZDM pre-facelift came factory with amber lights? Correct me if I am wrong, but there are many out there with them. Facelift on the other hand, haven't seen any factory with them.
