*spraymax 2k paint with hardener or regular enamel paint then follow up with 2k gloss or matter with the hardener either way I think it's best to use a paint w a hardener.

You could even prep the parts and take then to a paint shop and have them spray them with left overs from a job with even better hardened paint.

The lights remove easily from the frames with a solder iron. Just pull while you heat.
That is a little more involved than I hoped. Lol

My preference was to do the door ‘blades’
I originally thought wrapping it in red alcantara would look and feel great but maybe I first try painting it red. Then, if it doesn’t look good, I can wrap?!

Btw, I have a 1ss so no spectrum lights for me :(
