I never thought of painting my shop lights. Man, I gots a LOT of painting to do! hee heeee Great idea, Bob. I think if you wnet with red/white scallops, that it would look a little Christmas-like. How about Bone or Beige scallops with Orange striping, and have the Traditional Rod And Kustoms in fishscale lettering. Just a thought....

not bad ideas Tom. we got rain, so i can't do it yet with the humidity in the garage.....but i am going to try a few things. one thing, i figured i could hand paint lettering on it if i had the right brush for striping....heck i could even stripe it. i have never done that, but i feel i could do it ,maybe not as good as most guys do though. this may seem a waste of time to most guys, but who wouldn't rather have a hot roddish painted light over a dead white one? ;D
another thing in the back of my mind....i can use model decals around the corners and stuff...will see what i can find in my stuff.
