Peeling Tail Light Fix


Recommended Posts

Some of you are aware that I obtained an extra set of tails to address the peeling chrome issue (thanks to DJE). I recently completed the repair after attempting many different solutions. My final fix was to strip the chrome plated area down to bare plastic and I used Krylon Chrome Paint for plastic. Granted it does not look like chrome but the chrome paint has nice gloss and matches the silver of the wheels, and other silver accents on the car. I honestly think that someone who is not familiar with the SHO would think that the repaired tails are OEM.  Here are a few photos of the finished project:

Please don't notice the dirt on this tail...I didn't take the time to clean it after install because I was tired and it was getting cold...
