I bought paiint from towerpaint.com and they color matched my car. Being that i owned a Cosmos Schwartz m3 i just gave them the color code from my engine bay and i ordered two cans. So my corners matched the color of my car as well.

Only thing is during the day time it was kinda hard to really see the signals being used. But at night time you could still see the amber shine through.

Spray Can....VHT Niteshades....summitracing.com or ebay....maybe even a local shop. I blacked out my tail lights on my grand prix with it. If you want pics let me know. It is about 9 bucks a can....1 can would be plenty. Sand....paint as many coats as desired and then clear....simple and cheap. Goodluck

I did mine with the "cheap worthless hobbie window tint paint" and cleared over them... they turned out great... They will last as long as the clear on your car, since they are cleared with the same product. heres a pic with the lights off, and in my sig you can see what they look like with the lights on.

Don’t use nite shades it has a reddish tint in it, when the lights on the yellow will look redder, from my own experience. Have used nite shades over 10 times. Uses model transparent (tint) paint and make sure u put on a layer of uv protector clear coat so the sun wont fade the tint paint

make sure u apply evenly or one corner will glow brighter than the other
