A variation on tinted taillights
« on: Jun 9, 2003, 09:17PM »
Hey guys - I was mucking around in PSP with a picture of my TRX to see what looks the goods in the way of tinting the taillights. After about 30 minutes I came up with this...

ahhhh far f*cking out... these f*cked up little FTP programs that always run out of registration.. f*cking hell!

I'll be back with that picture :)

There`s a place here in Syd that can make the lenses then all i`d need to do is either put coloured bulbs in or better still make up some High Brightness LED banks and mount into original light assembly

Wouldn`t be too hard actually

lol I gave it a really good shot - it kinda turned out like imaspy's but with the whole taillight looking black and white. It's as close as I could get.

I'll post it here anyway if you'd like?
