Im wondering if the red tail light tints found on ebay cover the whole tail light or leave a small area on the bottom, like in the photo.



When I bought the car it brought a set of TYC tail lights and Im not really feeling them, so im looking to just red them out.

Thanks.

 

A lot of people paint the inside of them. I have my old painted lights sitting in the attic since I got Sonars.

 

If you just get red vinyl, you can make the cutoff wherever you want.

 

ok thanks, Ive tryed messaging two of the sellers but they never responded. I may try painting the inside. Any paint in particular?

 

Either Krylon Stained Glass or Testors Candy Apple Red Transparent.

 

Here's an old picture of mine with the painted tails... I used Testors.

 

looks great. thanks for your help!

 

There should be a couple DIYs on the tech section still.

 

i used clear red vinyl. been on there or 5 years now.

 

testers model paint will fade..I suggest painting over the lens with automotive grade Applee Red Candee
candee base coat /clear coat..

I only use Xotic paint..<FTW http://www.xoticcolours.com/products_airbrushpaint.htm

 

you could also contact bluebatmobile for some good overlays. i think he is still in business

you should go to advance auto and get ur self a tail light repair tape. its red and cost about $4 it should do the trick..
