Wow! That roof beacon does look ... strange.
Yes, they need some gray or silver paint around the base. Too bad no one makes beacons anymore.Scott
This beacon is currently available from Details Associates and comes with 2 other types of beacons, all of which are molded in the transparent yellow color you see above (still need to paint the silver base). I only wish it was a tad more orange in color and perhaps not quite as transparent.
I would paint the square part of the base dark gray and perhaps a silver band just above that. That said, at least one source does make a suitable beacon...one which also requires some painting as can be seen here, mounted to a separate base on my LL GP60 bash...This beacon is currently available from Details Associates and comes with 2 other types of beacons, all of which are molded in the transparent yellow color you see above (still need to paint the silver base).

Hey Russ, tell us more about the beacon. What Detail Associates part is it? And what did you use for the base?
