I have seen and used spray made specially for the tail lights. Nowhere did it say that it was high temp, but you are probably right.

just a good automotive paint. Not your run-o-the-mill krylon.

That pic of the blue pro with the racing stripe is my car. I went to Pep boys, got a GTS headlight styling kit. I used the circles from the kit and set them up on the tailights. I then stuck the vinyl circles on the tailights and spray painted whatever wasn't covered black with rustolem paint. I then removed the circles and after the paint was dry, I sprayed the lenses with VHT Nite Shades tint spray. After that was dry, I gave it 2 coats of Rustolem clear coat. Gives it a nice factory look and surprisingly I don;t get pulled over for it either cuz if light hits the lense, you can still see the reflector.

damn--you dug this thread up---that was back when i was going to paint my car black--as you can see--i didn't........
i just couldn't get myself to put vinyl on my car---
i thought it wouldn't look right with how much i spent on everything i've done so far---some day i amd going to finish my plans of making custom, colormatched, plastic peices to use during the day--and just take them off when night driving--i think this would look badass with the car----
