Spoona_Jay21 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Ok, so i am reconditioning a set of tail light housings. I am trying to make them as original as possible when i do it. I have seen them in silver, a dark grey, this funky gold(which the ones I am workin with currently are) My question is, do any of you know what color they should be for a 73'? If so can you give me paint codes, or possibly where i can get some? Any help would be helpful, thanks guys B) Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 For a 620? Paint them to match the rest of the truck. Quote Link to comment
Spoona_Jay21 Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 well the truck will be cherry red, so i think it will just look odd. i like the colors i listed that i have seen. color matched housings look weird too me. thanks for the suggestion though Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I think gray, dark to light. . Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I was gonna say, for cherry red, gloss black or white would look neat. Quote Link to comment

datsunaholic Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Originally a silver metallic, not too metallic, and not chrome. Not glossy, or even shiny really. Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 id call it a flat grey, kinda...... Hard for me to tell tho since my truck is older than me :rofl: Quote Link to comment
pharouh Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I paint mine with silver. Then put a clear coat over that. It tones it down a little. Eastwood aluma blast would work. I've seen them in every color. Black,white,body color. Whatever you like,it's your truck. Chrome looks really good :wub: Quote Link to comment
Spoona_Jay21 Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 Ok guys, thanks for the help. B) goin with the silver, if you want to see the truck they are goin on, look at "wifes 620" right here in the 620 forum Quote Link to comment
