Paint the funny shapes that are on the outside of the light they must be there for a reason.

you meen the oval bit where the indicator and reverse light are?
wayne, you need to sand the lights for ages to get the lumps off and the shiny coating, i sprayed them the same as the car a while back but they were so dim i sanded it back of and relaquered them.

wayne, you have to take the black rubber seal off or you will never be able to open the filler cap with no handle there.
