Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS
I did it after. I found a tupperware lid that was the size I wanted and traced around it with a sharpie. Then I very carefully scored the film with an razor along the line. Kept going very slowly untili was through. I might have scratched up the inner tail lens a bit, but if I take the film of it'll be because I'm switching my tails out for LED's.

Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS
Haha, get some! You'll be so low though... They'll probably drag on the pavement! I gotta fix the rears so they're more vertical.

Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS
hey, car is looking awsome, love the rims!!!
If you dont mind (without me having to read through 6 pages of mods) can you tell me what you did to your rear lights to turn them red?? is it vinyl? if so how can I replicate that.
thank you

Thanks man!
Yeah the red tails are lamin-x. I bought it from sechemedia.ca and applied it myself. It's really easy to do, and there's some tutorials and junk on youtube. It's the same stuff I have on my fogs.

Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS
No updates yet (still not done painting my winters LOL!) but I have some happy news.
I have been offered an apprenticeship working as a carpenter. Starting pay would be more than I am currently making, and a friend who works for the same company says he gets paid VERY well. I have some experience in framing, but always preferred detail work, so this is going to be right up my alley. I'm really excited for the new opportunity!
So, hopefully soon this thread starts hopping ;)
p.s., wheels WILL be finished and mounted this weekend

Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS

They're not perfect, but it turned out much better than I expected and I learned a lot about painting and prep. I feel a lot better about trying a DIY paint job on my BBS wheels over the winter :thumbsup

yellow fogs maybe.. you already have red tails + calipers. honestly though i dont see it as that big of a deal.

Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS

Re: ssawatsky's 07 CWP GS
Hey,
If you don't mind me asking - where did you get the vinyl for your lights? I know for some cars where it's a common mod they actually sell them but I haven't found them. Did you do it yourself or just had a shop do it for you?
Car looks amazing, red tails are so necessary!

Sorry dude, I didn't see you post here. I wasn't ignoring you on purpose haha. Anyway, if you happen to check this thread again, I got the lamin-x from Matt at sechemedia.ca. Great guy to deal with :) I just told him how much I needed and then applied and trimmed it myself
