84 annivesary tail lights painting ???

anybody know of a stencil or tape specific to painting the tailights for a 15th anniversary Trans Am??? it looks like 3/4 inch tape would work but it would be kind of tricky on the ends and going around the bird in the center section.

I would suggest removing the bird. Let the center section soak in warm water for a while (maybe half an hour) and you should be able to remove it easily with out damaging it.

I have a set of 15th lights (on display in my computer room, and an extra center section), and they do look like a real PITA to paint!

Id guess any good quality masking material would do the trick, just very time consuming.

Good luck.
