More of a personal preference but I scored a set of decent 79 tailights locally! They need a little work to look amazing and I’ve got time to kill as I wait for my tq converter. Pic of current tails for reference. Most people prefer the ones I have on the car because you can add sequential turn signals to them.

Time to bring them to life. Will post finished pics.

Work ? . Depends on condition, but I start at 1500 wet sand, 2000, complete dry, spray clear coat, wet sand 3000, polish/wax with griots or(?) depending on finish.

Yesssssssss! I’m pumped. I love it. Came out pretty good. Needs a little more polish but I couldn’t wait to put them on. Last pic is the 81’s. Which ironically most people prefer ?‍♂️

God damn did those come out good. What kinda money are the 81 tails fetching these days?
I'm going to have to find me a set of 71 tails that need some love and practice using your method.

There is a sick ass Malibu owned by a local dude racing this weekend in a big rim racing event in southern Illinois. I think he is 630bulliez on IG or FB, I'll try to get some pics. I know him and Turbo Joe went down there together.

I dont have FB so cant get any other pics besides that

Yes he is, I follow him on IG. Literally just got his car painted too. I’m selling my 81’s for $300 but they’re mint. No cracks, stress marks, and all tabs are there.
