Painted tail light panels

[racebird1]

Just a quick bit of possible useful information. I painted the tail light panels today using the duplicolor Graphite wheel coating as reccomended somewhere here. They came our pretty decent the color is not exactly the same the metalic flakes are a bit larger than original but non the less they look good. Wet sand with 320 and 3 light coats about 5 minutes apart should be just fine. I will be spraying the tank and brake booster with POR 15 black tomorrow and will also be painting the engine and and air filter along with some brackets with the dupont Turquise paint with. I will let you know how the color matches.

Yep, mine came out pretty nice as well. I also gave them a "dusting" of clear after they had dried.

I did mine that way and also thought the metalic was a bit much, so I covered with a coat of "Light Matt" finish. Toned it down nicely.
