It's hard to get adhesion to plastics without the right primer (which you don't want to use because it is usually quite pigmented and opaque), but for what you are doing spray paint enamel or similar is OK. Waterbased will look shitty. Just don't scratch it. Try taking the lens off and painting the inside of the plastic lens - that way you don't have worry about it coming off when you wash the car etc. [Updated on: Thu, 20 November 2003 05:42] [Report message to a moderator]
