why don't you just buy real ones out of a calais?
Surely they can't be too much from the wreckers?

Making tape and spray paint.

Takes ages. lol. Mabye even a quick wet sand with 2000 grit before you spray the stripes?

where's the ingenuity man!

you tape up the lights leaving the strips exposed, then you sand, clean, prime, paint, and clear (with spray cans).

ok thats all i was asking. so just the normal paint from auto pro or sprint

or get a pin striper to do it for you.

yeah i got mine from supershit auto. you only get what you pay for, but in this case you don't exactly need awesome paint. just make sure you do thin coats and allow adequate drying time inbetween.
