For Father's Day my wife bought me a set of new tail lights. The original driver's side was pitted and both were just not up to par with the rest of car. The worst part though was the chrome trim around tail light. It was shiny enough, but pitted in quite a few areas. I wasn't about to spend $395 for a new set so I decided to plasti-dip the trim. It definitely hides the pitting and looks decent IMO. I can always peel it off if I decide to later on, but so far I'm pleased with the results. I also sprayed the interior housing with Wurth metallic silver paint and it came out pretty good. Overall, a fun Saturday  ;)

Looks great !!!!  :2thumbs:

Is it my imagination, but is there a peg-hole visible just to the right of the 'R/T' looking at it from the rear? If so, may wanna plug it up...

It's the leftover hole from the original Charger emblem, my faux R/T has the same hole plugged with a tiny rubber stopper
