The start of a on going thread of my Monte.

Next project is to tint the tail lights slightly. I am also thinking about doing the DrunknMonkey led light bar as well. I might need a photoshop of that done to my car. If anyone could do that for me I can post a good picture of the rear for you to do the photochop.

Tinted tails.

boosting98 · 08-18-2008, 11:14 PM

^those tails are amazing! what did u use, and do u want 2 do mine?

7801MonteMan · 08-19-2008, 01:32 PM

Thanks Boosting98. I used a basecoat binder and low stregth black in a ratio of 2:1. Prep the tail lights taped them up made my passes to desired tint darkness. Then three coats of clear was applied. I would do your tails if you are seriously interested. I don't know if I would need to be a vendor I don't want to get kicked off nor to I want to offend other poeple that do the same thing on the forum aka Flip or the other guy that offers services. PM me or I will PM you either way.

Now for day time pics!

Its nice to have everything back together and now its time to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I sat in my driveway this evening looking at my car and drinking a beer in the shade while my buddy worked on his car in my driveway ahaha.

stlmo_gtp · 08-20-2008, 12:03 AM

DanGTP · 08-20-2008, 01:29 PM

Turned out very nice! I'm jealous.

7801MonteMan · 08-20-2008, 11:08 PM

Thanks for the comments I like hearing them no doubt. I have another project in mind can't let the cat completely out of the bag just yet. I have it pictured in my head though. Its a combination of shaved trunk lock and something else.

All I can say is that I have seen this idea on Camaro's and Mustangs rear deaklids. That may give it away though...If you know what its is let me know

I may need a photochop of this idea.

very very pretty car! Now you need a couple of polished exhaust tips under that rear bumper.
