    I know its an old thread, but don't wanna start a new one. Would tinting the tails from the inside work, I have aftermarket tails that the lens removes with 4 screws. I figured if I tint from inside there would be no need for clear since the outside is already glossy... Yay or nay?

    if you tint them from the inside it still may look a lil red on the outside maybe (not to sure just thinking)

    You'd have to paint. I have a thread in the how to section about it.

    Well the lenses are clear... There those fugly ricer ones. I got them for cheap with my headlights as a package deal. I'll play around with the idea with some old clear lenses from something to check first though. Thanks a lot for the advice though guys.
