White Taillight Mod Completed!

oh yeah, the tail lights too hahaha.

 

Yeah, I decided to leave the amber in.

 

They look real good. Legality of GA and like others said is touchy. This is what GA law says:

§ 40-8-24. Reflectors


(a) Every motor vehicle manufactured after March 12, 1954, and operated upon a highway, other than a truck tractor, motorcycle, or motor driven cycle, shall carry on the rear, either as a part of the taillights or separately, two red reflectors, and every motorcycle and every motor driven cycle shall carry on the rear at least one red reflector, meeting the requirements of this Code section.

(b) Every such reflector shall be mounted on the vehicle at a height not less than 20 inches nor more than 60 inches measured as set forth in subsection (b) of Code Section 40-8-21 and shall be of such size and characteristics and so mounted as to be visible at night from all distances within 300 feet to 50 feet from the rear of such vehicle except that visibility from the greater distance is hereinafter required of reflectors on certain types of vehicles.

I'd love to do a pyrite version of this maybe. I suppose reflectors could be left unpainted or I could slap 2 reflectors on my bumper lol.

 

I'm sure the state I live in has a similar law. At night the taillights will be on so they will be hard to miss. That doesn't mean that it will not get me a "fix it" ticket though. I figure if I get a ticket it will be because I was doing something else that got me pulled over in the first place. Time will tell.

 

Looks awesome!

 

Here ya go

Looks crazy man. I like it. Good job.

 

Thank you

 

I like how the black trim looks going around the light. Breaks up the white between the body and light.

 

DUDE! this looks cool, good job.

 

Yeah, If you decide to do it you'll have to paint the outside of the lens to cover up the glue and trim marks from where you cut. It takes about 1/4 of a inch to cover the glue underneath the lens.

Thank you!

 

Did you mask off anything in the inner parts or did you just spray it. I like how the parts look like they have a line around it like you painted each part ??? Like around the led tail light and the smaller squares under?

 

Yes I taped off the LED's, the LED ring, and the back up lights. The prep work is what takes the most amount of time but the result is worth it.

 

Those look great.

I do see some interaction with the your friendly neighborhood law enforcement officers in your future though.

Just put a set of black Anzo tails on my truck, even though they hit all the checkboxes as far as proper reflectors, DOT # (probably fake) and such, I have a feeling I will be stopped for them in the near future. They just look too different to not draw attention.

 

What paint did you use?

 

Primed first then used this. Matches almost perfectly.

Oh wow, I used krylon fusion gloss white on my headlights and it's a bit duller in person.
Might try that or order from that website that has the $20 cans that's supposed to match 100%

 

there are bulbs out there that look chrome on the outside but light up amber... if you can find some of those to replace the turn signal bulbs might look a little cleaner. looks sick either way... great job!!

 

something along these lines...
