Mini-Project: New IROC Taillights

You're probably saying to your self "what in the hell is he doing".  Simple, phase one for my new IROC Grid-style tail lights for my car (replacing the stock, single stripe tail lights I currently have).   I have masked off the signals and I'm prepared to re-paint all black surfaces with a metallic black paint.

And now, you can see phase one of the project is complete.   I started the paint phase in fall of 1999.  It was too cold to apply the clear coat.   So I did not finish these until summer of 2000.  Below are shots of them in the garage as the final clear coat was applied!!

Personally, I think these taillights look REALLY sharp on my Z.  I am keeping the original ones in storage in case I ever want to return it to the original appearance.
