Default Costa remodel

I bought a pair of Costa 580's that I'm fixin' to paint. Do wimens wear these style glasses, or, do I gotta get a different model? They have green lens, so, I wanna paint the frame hot pink....my wife's two fav colors.

Salty, a lot of women wear them, just depends on the style. My wife even has a couple of pair.

They got a black frame. Gonna be tough to paint pink. I might try on a pair of WalMart ones first. Never done this before. Do the lens come out on these things?

Base em out in white. It'll help ya get a lot faster and more even coverage. I'm doing the exact same thing right now on a pair of black fender flares that have to be painted red. Tint it white and it'll cover 3x faster.

I usually base coat in white for any color with red in it. All dark colors...I use black.
They have removable screws and body pads.
