"nylon'ed" my tail lights

[orangecounty1 10+ year member]

cost me $5.

looks great IMO. im most likely going to double wrap them tomorow, i gotta go get more nylon. we'll see how it holds up in sunlight over time.

the drivers one isnt stretched as tight as the passenger one, so ill prally double wrap one, see how the light shines through, then just redo both, stretching it as tight as i possibly can. it took me literally all of about 4 minutes per light... i really like how this came out.

hmm...

Not sure if I like it or not. I doubt it's going to hold up very well. Why not just tint them?

Looks pretty good. Isn't it illegal to do that? Just wondering.

Is it easy to tell that it is nylon from far away?

OK everyone sayign "TINT" ... he still can by cutting off the nylon!

Great idea, I really like it ... looks good, doesn't match paint but hey who cares?

I like it!

Looks great, just dunno how they'll hold up

looks good, atleast you can take it off quick if it tears or fades.

seems kinda silly, its gonna get dirty and hold the dirt.. prob gonna fade too, im not gonna lie tho it looks pretty good for what it is. Mine are painted tho and i love them.

first off, nice car!!! I'm digging those rims.

Secondly, this is the first time i've ever even heard of that, more or less seen it. I like it! Great job!

yeah having fabric nylon over your tail lights just fails in the classy and good taste department. sorry
