If you want JDM lights... Japan would be a great place to look.

The uneven edges and overspray on the reverse lights look terrible.

reverse lights are a easy fix just a lil paint thinner on a qtip and it will clean it right up i havent gone to the store yet to get it cus im waiting for it to dry

I was expecting some stupid horrible tail lights black out job. This actually looks pretty good, just fix the reverse light and it will be perfect. You should have taken them off of the car though and taped it off.

Nicely done.
If it was me I would take it off the car.

Well I guess the consensus is, you should have taken your tail lights off to paint them. They look good in your pictures, but I still see over spray on the car which is not good.

1 or 2 more coats still looks a bit orange.

x2 but its straight

yeah, i would have took the lights off also. fine overspray mist is definitely settled on the rest of the car. nothing a claybar couldn't fix.

doesn't look half bad in the pics. later.
