Painting those lights looks sweet, gives it a much cleaner, sharper look. hmmmm might have to poach that idea... wink.gif

Those lights look awesome dude. Love that idea, well done biggrin.gif

Cheers to those who like it. I love it. Its different to all those hundred thousand others with the stock black lights.

Yeh need to buy the insert for the bumper. It costs 90 bucks though. What a rip off and thats not genuine ford. In the end it will look exactly like it did befor the bumper fell off. Would love to get the supercar bumper but at $1300 its just a bit too dear atm.

Yeh have seen those Whipple supercharger kits. Only problem is they make them so tall. You can fit anything under the bonnet of a F150. But in the falcons there isnt that much room. Also look at the kit Saleen have for the 3v. Best looking kit I have ever seen. Only prob is that its for the 4.6l not the 5.4l. I am looking to spend about 10 grand maybey a little more if I find the right intercooled kit. I will also ring Mark at Marks Workshop to see what Vortek have to offer.

The lights look great man. I've seen a few XR6T's from over east with painted lights, funnily enough both of them were orange in colour (I think ones a sedan and ones a ute).

Definitely slap up pics once the bumper is painted, and don't worry those photos aren't too big!

Here's the photos of the one I mentioned in my previous post smile.gif

Sweeet. Love it. There is a xr6t show car over there too that has done it. In a custom orange colour. That is what gave me the idea do it.

hurry up and paint the bumper biggrin.gif i wanna see it finished

xt3valve- 01-08-2008
Pay for it to be painted and hey presto its done. Dont have the cash just yet to get it painted. But its on top of my to do list.

XF Falcon- 01-09-2008
Ah yeah I have a pic of that one too smile.gif

Cant wait to see yours all painted up man, will look schmick as biggrin.gif

xt3valve- 01-09-2008
Yep. Cheers man. Thats the one.

I cant wait for the bumper to get painted either. Should look good.

I might paint the after market chrome lights I have on the rear white too. Dont think anyone has ever done that before. Its good to be different.

XF Falcon- 01-09-2008
Yeah I've never seen that done before. If you want a photoshop preview of it just slap up a decent quality photo if its ass end and i'll do my best.

xt3valve- 01-10-2008
No worries mate. See what I can scrounge up.

GlennO87- 01-11-2008

I have decided to paint the rear aftermarket lights white too.

A few pics. I cant beleve the s*** sealent they use to hold the clear plastic to the light. I just put a screwdriver between the two and it just fell out.

This is all there is to it. No clips or anything holding it on just dodgy glue.

Will post pics of it when its all done. For now I wont be painting the black outline part of the lights. But if it looks odd then I will paint them.
