Plastidip red tail lights
So today I went to timeless motor sport or aka njdip *oldname*. And I got red dip and gloss on my tail lights. Been getting mix comments about them. But personally to me I really like the flat color going. I like the contrast. Some people don't like the flat color and wanted more of a glass finish. Yes light does go through when I brake and even the drl. What do u guys think? Ps. Go check these guys out on Facebook or Instagram. Pretty good job from what I've seen and on my tail lights . Located in jersey city.

Anything (key word is anything) that diminishes the output of light is a no-no to me. If I did do that I would prefer the gloss overlays.

I give you props for creativity and uniqueness. It would look even more badass with a matte body paint finish in my personal opinion.

Well thanks again for the comments guys. Maybe this will help anyone else who decides to plastidip there taillights and not to do it. Last night while getting stuff out of my car a cop rolled by and saw the back and said kindly to take it off cuz I will get pulled over for it not being reflective or something. Lesson learned. Thx again for the feedback
. And yes. They are all ripped off now.
