Thanks mIStabol, I didn't think about painting them. I presumed they were tinted. They are just reflectors in the UK, not lights so there would be no problem having them painted. Cheers

Well, had an impromptu mini-mini-meet last Sunday with OBP (who is a part time GA resident who hails from NJ). His Twilight Amethyst Pearl was a beauty.

We swapped cars and did some driving around.

Great to meet you OBP.

And apologies to Tommy and Kristi for not letting you know of this mini-mini-meet. Would have been awesome for us all to finally. But top down weather has just started. Let's get rid of the pollen and we are in business.

Here's a hurried shot taken.

Thanks darnot10. You have the DIY...go get them! It is so easy.

BTW I have the Lexus stickers (quite disappointed, small and only 4 pcs, unlike yours). But will do the calipers this weekend. I will probably end up cheating and will only paint the area where the stickers will be applied to. We will see. Whatever happens, I will post a DIY.

You can purchase these smoke colored vinyl stick ons, and they are normally pre-cut (just do not know if we have them for the SC side markers).

All you do is peel it off and apply to the markers. Done.

In fact I like the idea about smoking the side markers or at least make them all RED. Did you say in UK they are only reflectors, not lit?

do you want me to mail you the ones I got? I'm not planning on doing mine for at least a month or two. I can re-order from Xenonmods.com so when they arrive it will be about time to do mine!!!! Just let me know. I mean it as well.

An offer I can not resist. Drop it in the mail and I will drop something in the mail as well (your coupon for your new AL Racing Jack).

I think I have your addy and I believe you have mine, but will PM you anyway. I ordered an ISF Caliper Lexus decal...they are tiny...LOL.

Thanks,
Yes, they are just reflectors Mandy, orange back and front. No regulations to say we have to have them in the UK, so they could be completely blacked out, but I quite like the idea of the smoked look.

The smoked look will look nice on your ride's color.

I apologize in advance, but I started missing my SC today and wound up looking here again. I sold it about a year ago, but these were the most recent photos I had of her... I'm debating picking another up sometime...
