Amber Signals
I dont want to pay for the real ones that wont even fit:
So I bought some Krylon Translucent Stain-Glass paint but it ended up beeing the wrong color because its lid was amber but sprayed yellow. So its between these two. Anyone use either ones? Post pictures if you have.

i think yellow blinkers would be cooler than amber... just use an amber bulb imo just leave it clear or paint the housing with flat black paint. u could do 1/2 amber and half clear, but take the lense off and divide it so it has 2 sections instead of one housing and a mulit color lense.

I like how that stuff says:
FOR ADULT MODELERS ONLY
makes it look like ****.
I've used that Krylon stuff before, but you should throughly clean the light and spray the inside and out. I did just the outside and it looked ok but kinda faded and you could tell it was sprayed on

Ever try getting the lenses off? You have to boil them in water or you cant as old as they are. I think it looks really good in person. Turned out better than i though it would. I spayed clear coat on it and i think it looks better too. :
