Clearing out garage; Tails, grenada black spoiler
Hey all,
Clearing up the garage, hopefully for good this time. This post is to clear up the old thread with the other parts that are now gone.
Have only a few things left with some new parts.
Here's the background - may seem irrelevant, but important to know where these came from to understand what they are.
This is my other set of tails, a set I worked on as a project. Originally they came off of a 1994 and had the yellow corners. They were previously tinted by somebody else but they looked terrible.
I then decided to refinish them myself in the garage, and got to work sanding everything down to the lenses and then wetsanding and re-tinting them. I was very meticulous and did a good job in this. I sprayed them with what's called Metalcast, a rattle can paint made for giving aluminum and other metals an anodized look, however it gives plastics a tinted look in the colour of the paint (in this case, red). I then gave them a light clearcoat, and put them on the car.
Over time, with the constant waxing and polishing of my car that I do the tint has since faded from the blood red it used to be to a lighter red, with the corners showing some more fading and appearing orange.
They are great for someone who is willling to refinish them or someone who just needs a spare set of tails for their car. Also, can run them as they are, there is nothing wrong with how they look, they are in the middle between red and yellow (for the corners) in colour. The following pictures show the finish and colour of them in the light.
Please note, they do not come with the seals, harnesses, or bulbs.
Asking $50 OBO

Factory Grenada Black Pearl wing off my 97. Great condition, no rust or damage save for some scratches, visible in the following picture. 3rd light works great, all LED's bright and the paint shiny throughout.
Asking $50

Passenger side visor. Both sides in good condition, there is however a cut in the fabric under the mirror. Here is the SAME visor, but the other side.
First $5 takes it off my hands.
