99 Spec Converted Tail Light Pics

These tail lights were converted to 99 spec style by seven lust a few months back. I finally got my FD on the road again so I decided to snap some pictures of the lights to show what a great job John did. Check out the 3rd brake light pics too, I really like the separation

Yea but do you do Vinyl or Paint?

Paint is much better, a lot higher temperture before it will bubble. These were painted, looks great.

He had it done within a week. I think the turn around including priority mail both ways was 6-7 days. He painted them the day after he got them and sent them back out. Definitely quick service, I just waited to send them until the car was going to be down anyway due to engine work. Next time you do a project, send them off. You won't be disappointed.

i just completed all my Spring (season) work so the car isn't going to be down (scheduled) until Fall rolls around. its not my DD though, so a week or two won't be killer.

i talked to him about pricing already though, so, hopefully soon, out the door they go!

So you are around the same as Seven Lust. His turn around time was a day or two and charged $50, and $10 for the center light.

I sent them out to a forum member who lived in cali. Its really easy to do apparently a local guy did it himself. Pm me I can ask him if he wants to do another pair.

Hers a set I did. I do them for others as well. I actually have a set of 99 tail lights taken apart, and the circles of the lights are raised a little so they are perfect for making patterns off of.

I charge the same as every one else 50 plus shipping back. But I have a plastic polishing wheel that will take out scrates if you have any.
