#1: Black crystals fitted Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 8:58 am ---- Car finally completed(rear still needs lowering),this is how i wanted it to look for long time since my brother owned it.
Would you guys recommend sticking in black 3rd brake light or stick with the original red?

#5: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: anton1989, Location: west midlandsPosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 9:04 am ---- the black goes well its just the white, as nothing else is white looks abit out of place
#6: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 9:06 am ---- make them black dude and get a sports bumper too!
#7: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 9:07 am ---- Would light output be okay if i spray the white part black too?
Or what about spraying them yellow..lol i dunno i'm worried about the visibility just because the reflectors got cut off.
I would love to get sports bumpers but it cost too much,id rather save the bigger cost and wait another year or 2 and i might consider getting myself 206 GTI 138.

Never thought of it like that before, but it's a damn good description. I have 2 down the road that colour. Might just mention that description and see how long before they sell them.
The lights look crap. Get rid of the white and they will be slightly better. As already said, colour code them with chrome reflectors and they will suit the car.
#11: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 10:33 am ---- how could i get the chrome back though?
#12: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 10:54 am ---- is the light output not affected with the middle chrome painted?
#13: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:17 am ---- According to 00budham00 not much difference,however i won't know until i try driving in dark myself.
How would i go about spraying them chrome??
Would i need sand the white off then primer it and then get chrome paint spray or something?
#14: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:31 am ---- yes you can buy chrome paint from places like wilkinsons tho how good it is and what it like with the heat i have no idea.
#15: Re: Black crystals fitted Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:35 am ---- So do i need sand the white off or could i just spray primer on top and then chrome?
