Thank you! Ill give it a shot. Has anyone ever tried to use plasti dip on it? I was considering it so could play around with different colors!

So I gave it a shot and that damn thing is not budging! Mine looks a little different than the one in your picture (just ordered and got it a few days ago) so I'm guessing they may have changed how they are assembled??? Anyway, I'll just cover it with blue tape when I paint it since you can't see the inside anyway.

I already sanded mine so its just a matter of paint selection, but just for info purpose I looked up the backplate.
68066-99 BASE ASSEMBLY, CHROMED 1 46.55
Maybe I looked it up incorrectly, as it was much more than $20 bux when I checked on Ronnies. If you have that part number post it up please.
Do you have any pics I could see of the epoxy painted part? thank You

Thanks Monster, that looks nice. You even have the same tail light lens I do so that gives me en exact idea of what mine is gonna look like when its done.
Humidity is stuck at 75% for the next 3 days so I can paint still. Unless its OK to paint in 75% humidity and take the part in the air conditioned house to cure?
