      Looks awesome!
      At what temp and how long did you keep it in the oven?
      What paint/primer/sand paper did you use?
      How did you get the shiny finish with the turnsignals?
      Mine looks like a flat black (Even after the clear coat layers)

      i baked em at 250 for 30 minutes, then pried them apart. the turn signals i wet sanded gently then did three coats high gloss clearcoat. inside the headlight i used krylon plastic bonding

      I did it over 2 afternoons, maybe 3 hours? Most time consuming was waiting for the paint to dry. I was nervous after the first coat on the inside of the headlight housing it looked like it wasn't bonding well, but I let it dry then did 3 more and it came out real good
