Hey everyone,

Just wanted to post some before/after pics. I know some people think the box is cool.. and some people hate it... and that's fine. So let me know what you guys/gals think! :thumbup:

BEFORE PICS:

 

AFTER PICS:

 

Looks great! Would you mind telling me how you smoked them, and also how you got them to be non-smoked on the bottom parts? (It looks sick!) Thanks for any info....PS..... NICE WHEELS!!!!

 

Hey,

Thanks for the comments In regards to your question about how I smoked them, I had my painter do it for me. I'm not sure how he did it but I'm pretty pleased. I'm actauly going to smoke the rears some more in the next few weeks.

Looks good , candied looks good on the black sand pearl.

 

Looks tight...great pics!......

 

Pictures look great....... My guess is that his painter used Candy colors to smoke them because Candy's are transparent and he taped off what he didn't want to color.

 

THanks everyone... sorry about the post mod... I thought I could post it here.

Do you guys think i should add my spoiler on there? I thought I wanted to... but not sure anymore. Something about the spolier messing up the lines of the box. Thoughts? Opinions?

 

the spoiler will make it look "sportier" my opinion

 

Looks killer man!!

 

That's hot.

 

I just got the OEM spoiler installed, you can check it out here:

available in the model building asile of walmart/michaels/etc.

about 3 dollars in paint (1 can is enough) and get good masking tape:
i am currently (as i type) swingin up a design right now...

ps yes, nice look, ill b putting on my wing soon, did you do it yourself lowpromofo? i'd like some marking tips if youve got any

 

i did something similar to what you did .. yet i smoked the reverse ... i did it with testors candy paint and nightshades

(the reflector looks lighter on the right taillight .. but its actually the same shade... just the way the pic came out) but you get the idea

 

To me the testors looks kinda orangish versus red.

 

The smoked looks good on your car I actually have my tails smoked a little (as you can see on a side pic) but I'm going to have it smoked more. So what do you guys think? Spoiler or no?

 

Here's a Link to what i did today; ill be adding a bit more to these lites soon

Yeah I'd say the best thing to do is candy what you want to candy them smoke em a little or a lot. Depending on how dark you want it.

 

That looks good man! Did you use testors also? What "brand" clear did you use too?
