i used krylon stained glass paint from michaels craft store, although michaels had the paint under the color yellow and told me they were sold out, i went to the store and the orange was in the yellow and the yellow was in boxes, for michaels but i love the result, no more clear bumper lenses

I went to 2 Michaels, and neither of them had the Krylon Stained glass paint. Was it in the same section as the other spray paints?

I asked for help at both places and they looked at me like they didn't know what I was talking about. I guess I'll go back and try again.

I really like that dark green color, and the OEM kit. Looks real nice.
