You use a tint spray on them followed by a clear coat....

when you smoke tail lights do you smoke the outside of the tail light or the inside. and should i smoke the front signals and the sides. and is it hard to get a wof with them. many thanks

I had smoked all-round on my car, had no issues with WOFs, Police, or following traffic.

Smoked on the outside, I'd do all - after practice of course. If no clear coat, add a Wax.

I've had problems with wofs,but it depends on which set I'm running at the time (I have a darker set) and where I go for the WOF. Technically they ARE illegal, but you'll get away with it 9 out of 10.

Not sure if Ollie is still providing the service. If he is its worth the cost - his finish is better than most can do with a spray can for not alot more.

Yeah, sold to some young fella down Puke.

I've got a spare set of sides, that I use on my other 30. Back went with the car. I've only got Ollie Reded FL tails left.

MHW brand. These rear lights are not spray painted, rather they were made with tint plastic.

price includes p&p

PM me if interested.

I failed a wof cos my front indicators are smoked, so i had to buy another set of covers. then swap them back to the smokes after. you can get a tint spray from repco for $18. like other people say tho I spose its just where you go to get your wof.
