smoked lens
So my front signal orange lens where pretty tired, all cracked up.
I was also tired of the orange, and wanted to buy the hookoncars clear lens.
But being tight on budget, I told my self I could give the VHT lens paint a try.
For 20$, I painted the 2 front signal lens and all 4 side lens (the red and orange ones).
I love it.
- crazy glue to repaire the cracked lens
- VHT paint
- Clear coat in a can
- 1200 and 2000 grit sand paper
- final touch, buff with some compound
They look new! And can't see the cracks no more (except when the turn signal is on, but who cares : )
Took me all weekend (let it dry for 24hours before sanding), but a 20$ well spent.
