I didn't you were a mountain bike guy, to drop a berm peak reference! The tail lights look sick, but maybe doing the tint on the inside would have prevented the polishing bit?
Damn those lights looks so good for a diy job! I tried to do something like this in my Toyota Celica, but just like You I wasted 2 sets of lights, because they used hard silicone glue, not the common soft one which can be heat treated. One day i'll just buy set of aftermarket lights and diy the rings in it, cause this looks so awesome! Stay commited, greetings from Poland!
Look on the bright side you learned something new. . . The way I see things when it comes to anything DIY when I'm modding my car I at least learn something new
my respect for you when you said "We're doing something a little bit different,but kinda the same" went way up! I didn't think you watch berm peak,keep it up!
Dude, those are some BAWS taillights! I was interested to see where the mod was going but they turned out fire! That sequential takes it to the next level I love it. Keep these vids a comin!!
The whole time I was like "But, why bother with white on that back? You can't drive around with it." and then you tinted the clear lens and it all made perfect sense. I may or may not have skipped around a bit, so maybe you mentioned it, but I still enjoyed being surprised by the red tint.
Should have put them in the oven at …. 240 … degrees 😂 and side note when painting plastic your best bet is to use a can of adhesion promotor. Plastic has a tendency to not want paint to stick
Good video. Only thing that bugs me, and to give you a word of advice on a few things: Firstly, don't try to bend the plastic covers. In the beginning of your video when you were trying to take the glass covers off, the reason you were chipping and breaking the covers is because you were pulling up on it. Don't do that. Pull along it and try to cut inbetween the glue, dont force the plastic off because its brittle and its gonna break on ya. Secondly, try not to paint besides your car, if youre gonna spray anything out of a can don't have anything nearby you dont mind having flakes later on. All that white paint can easily fly into the air and land on your car and other things. Espically with having that fan blowing, its gonna scatter the paint particles and later on you might notice flakes on your car. (I've learned this second hand from my dad.) Keep your spray painting isolated or do it outside. Keep up the good work! And I think those taillights turned out quite well. Personally I would've skipped on the red tint and kept it clear, but either way it looks pretty epic!
1st time visiting here. But thank you for this video. Changed the game. I'll click your links to support when I'm ready. I'm happy you posted the multiple steps attempts with the oven. (My greatest fear). What was the final temp and time?
Man Im Happy I watched this video although I missed it when it originally came out...thanks RUclips. Damn Brad I am so proud of you what an awesome job!
Lol I remember you asked if I wanted to trade my eBay tails for your stock tails but I was planning on modding mine at the time too. Now my plans have changed and I want to go back to stock 😂 Those turned out sooo good though!

Thumbs up for seeing it through
Not bad, I think I liked the clear lense over the white just a bit better though, mostly because you have white wheels
Love these long videos also them lights are drippyyyyyyy
I love to hear that
Hey man, this video was actually super fun to watch even though you think it was long I've still enjoyed it.
In Germany we would say: "Betriebserlaubnis erloschen".
But in general they look good!👌
Nice work!
This was a dope video!!! Maybe instead of the red paint, you can do it again with red tint
Awesome video!!!
Those DIY lights are incredible!!!
Such a positive attitude and great handy work!!! I really really enjoy your videos!!!
good to see you posting again :)

1:33 berm peak aka Seth bike hacks!
Adhesion promoter! Helps paint stick to plastic. 🤷♂️🤯
So nice to see you posting!
They look good! Love these type of videos where you customize parts of ur car to ur own taste instead of just bolting it on
Looks nice you should shot 2k clear on the red

oh and another small thing, you could've easily took off that hot glue on your brake light lids with some isoprophal alcohol.
absolute beast

ARE THOSE ZIGENS?!? I have those EXACT same wheels on my s13, I absolutely love them. I never see anyone with those!!
Try adding LED bulbs for the indicators, I think it'll look even better. good job!
My boi seth
Man Im Happy I watched this video although I missed it when it originally came out...thanks RUclips. Damn Brad I am so proud of you what an awesome job!
Thanks brotha I appreciate it
Those taillights looking Mint for diy stuff!
Woot Woot about time!!!!! Keep it up man. Little by little!!
Skipped a little forward when I started the video and thought this was a cooking video
such a tedious process. Try, try again until you get it the way you want it. Glad you stuck with your vision, these look super dope!
They came out sick! And awesome edit at the start of the video with the melted centre section 😂
Rather a how to not😂❤️love it
This was really impressive. Good job man.
super rad
It was a good attempt at least. Why not paint the red lens paint from behind lens vs. Front that way its automatically glossed and no buffing needed?
These turned out wicked buddy! 🤙🏻
SO Seth's bike hacks!!!!!!!
Hell yeah Brad, awesome video those light looks super cool
Brad looking beefy
Brad: "heat is your friend"
Taillights: *"Well..."*
They look awesome, nicely done!
New brad video let’s goooo
Those lights look awesome 🔥
Change the bulb on the signal to led
Night shade black would of been better
Lol I remember you asked if I wanted to trade my eBay tails for your stock tails but I was planning on modding mine at the time too. Now my plans have changed and I want to go back to stock 😂 Those turned out sooo good though!
I think making them smoked would of looked better, or even using proper red tint rather than the spray can.
I thought that taillight had ya in the first half, not gonna lie
Lmao, damn I woulda been pissed when I melted that. Looks good, hope the paint will last, with the heat from the light bulbs
Great vid dude! Keep going 😁
New video yessir !!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Add 2k to the lens for a better shine please y'all blow the comment up I know for a fact some 2k would make those headlights even better!!!!!
damn i just noticed this was brad from Robbie's channel. brad ur a silly guy
In a good way?
Let’s goooo
I didn’t think that anyone else liked to mountain bike and drive s chassis cars
let’s gooo brad
Heat gun and fishing wire. Far better than an oven
Amazon link is dead, how big were the halo leds?
just use a dam acycelene torch short heat ive done this before
berm peak refrence
What is the size of the led rings?
Heat gun is your friend
There are two inventions tape and a heat gun
The fact that these taillights used sealant instead of being plastic welded is such a blessing
you shouldnt have painted the reflectors, your lights when you brake wont be as bright
😎👌
Bradley
Y spray the light and not just use a color tint wouldn’t that be even better lol
Clear coat the lens !!!
Didn’t think of that! Will do!
Suppp
lol they look bad
