So, I've been looking for some aspires because I wanted some amber in my taillights, well, since the search has been fruitless so far I decided to play around with my 2nd Gens, tamiya transluscent orange was used for the paint, I like it, I'm going to tint them a tiny bit too at some point.
LMK what you guys think. I apologize for the filthy car

Doesn't look bad, but I don't like it.

Hmm.. Looks "too orange" more of an amber would probably look better.. I know it's your first time trying this. Great job on the work.

I think he means less orange, but same darkness.

hmmm, we'll see, I'll play around with mixing different paints, it's only 2 coats, no clear yet, so it'll come off easily once I have time to redo it, I"m happy with it for now until I can get some aspires of my own

your car can pull them off good because of its color. most other colors nah
it makes the car look more "1990's" is the word that comes to mind.
The 3rd gen aspire's orange is a bit brighter

As if the Acura TL is similar enough you now turned it into a clone. Now if you turn your hi-beams into yellow fog lights you're
in business....

I personally like the way the second Gens are factory.
