Hmmm if I pull them apart then yes, I'll modify them. I just want to know If the lense for the brake light ( big rectangle) and indicator (kinda triangle) are separate pieces.

Might not be till next week at this stage. Just a heads up to anyone trying this at home, that paint stripper stuff burns like fuck! Wear gloves, I didn't and it still kinda burns.
Must be the Gto on the can causing it to overheat :p

not sure how you're applying the paint stripper...normally you use a paintbrush and are pretty careful to keep it off your hands :p

Nah that paint stripper will get on your hands. I had to use 4L of the stuff to totally strip my bonnet before the scoop went on. Nasty shit! VHT make a crinkle effect red paint. Very popular on the JDM scene.

Little tip, if you do it with a heat gun at least keeping the rocker cover warm, the paint will dry so much better. Amazing how much temp effects the gloss I get when doing things like this.

always a good idea to have a heat lamp on whatever you're painting :)
