FS: 05+ TACOMA SMOKED TAIL LIGHTS (professionally done by me ELTACOLOCO)

eltacoloco · 08-06-2008, 04:47 PM

Ok yall, I had a list of people interested in my tails and have already sent an email to 3 of the people on the list and no one has responded so the way I am going to do this from now on is first come first serve...now I know that after i post this everyone is going to respond but I think this is the most fair way to to this...Also after doing the first couple of sets I realized that by the time I add in shipping, the cost of paint, sandpaper, buffing compounds and my precious time I end up pocketing only $36 so my new price will be $85 and I think this is still a very resonable price for this givin it takes me about 6hrs of actual prep and paint time to do these precious tails.

So you send me $185 i refund back $100 once i receive your stocks

here is the set I have ready to go right now with a lighter tint by popular request so if you want them hurry up and PM me and we will set up payment...may the best man win!

cmytacoma · 08-06-2008, 06:14 PM

They're mine. I"ll send you my extra third brake light back with my stock tails and i'll have you do that for me as well and send you my extra stock one when i can afterward so you'll have an extra in the rotation.

Sent you a PM, trying to find out who you sold them too but haven't heard from you. As of yesterday it was my understanding that these set of lights were mine but would like to know for sure before I send you my money.

You have to send the money first before you can consider them yours. will update thread as soon as another set is ready..."The set you look at today and think about purchasing tomorrow is a set that someone looked at yesterday and will purchase today"

Yeah but when you initially send me a PM asking me if I want them, I tell you yes but have a question about payment and tinting. I receive a response, get ready to send money through Paypal but notice there listed as sold. If you had no intentions of selling them to me to begin with why even bother sending me an e-mail. Don't get me wrong you offer a quality product at a reasonable price just think the way you go about selling them has something to be desired.

Yes but understand where im coming from I had a lot of people asking me questions and telling me they wanted them and some of those people that said they wanted them never even responded back thats why I posted in the last thread that it will be first come first serve from now on...I will also send pm's to everyone on my list as well as update the thread when a set is avail. for sale...Im not trying to upset anyone just trying to make some extra money to cope with the tuff times...and remember I have this same thread on 3 other forums so I get bombarded with pm's with questions and the only way I can promise someone the next set is with deposits...I cant please everybody.

hey eltacoloco, I have a question. would u tint the tail lights light but not the reversal . do u know what i mean.

cmytacoma · 08-21-2008, 07:32 PM

Yes he will but any masking he has to do will be an additional $10 i believe. That's what he quoted me when i requeste the same thing

06WHITETRD · 08-22-2008, 03:21 PM

oh really, do u have pictures of the one u have??i want see them. i dont mind, i just want mines to look good u know..

craigFLA · 08-31-2008, 02:46 PM

Anyone interested in eltacoloco's smoked tail lights may want to hold off for awhile. He got hit pretty hard during Tropical Storm Fay, and is obviously dealing with things on the home front.

Here is a link to another thread regarding the issue. I'm sure he'll touch base with us when he can, but figured I'd leave a link so people werent left wondering why he isnt returning PM's...

Gen3Benz · 09-13-2008, 08:02 PM

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER
I sent my damaged tail lights back and he will not refund my $190
HE HAS MY MONEY AND THE TAIL LIGHTS
The tail lights had marks from the styrofoam peanuts
I took them to my painter and he said the paint is from a rattle can not clear-coated like the seller says.
He is a liar and a thief.
He will not return my e-mails or PM's

Blackened Taco · 11-21-2008, 08:51 PM

I am curious how well the reverse lights work with your tint and if I supplied you the lenses, how long of a turn around time are you looking at?Would be very interested in some tail lights done as well as the third brake light.

Blackened Taco · 11-22-2008, 11:32 PM

Did you smoke your own? They look great. Let me know how you did it? I was considering spraying mine with a black toned clear lacquer. It's an old trick I used when shooting furniture. But if you have a better idea or method, please share.

tacoma08MZ · 11-23-2008, 12:07 AM

well find yourself a can of vht nightshades, around here franks autosupermarket is the only place that has it. you can probly get it on the net somewhere to. instead of taking my taillights off i just masked them off. 3 coats of the nightshades and i was done. they came out perfect it was very simple
