    Hey guys does anyone have a picture of this? I have been trying to find one for days now because my buddy wants me to do that to my tails instead of tinting them with nightshade paint.

    If you have any pics please post them!


    Thanks!

    i did this before i tinted mine and ended up not liking it. you have two choices, one is easy and hard at the same time, the other is just hard.

    1) cut the whole back off the tail light, break the red reflector, and then epoxy/glue/etc the back back onto the housing.

    2) take forever with a screwdriver and chip out the reflector from the bulb holes.

    i started to do #2, but ended up doing #1 anyway. really for the effect i didnt like it that much. i think the only color cars it would look good on are white or silver. tinting looks much better on anything else. i dont have any pictures because it was only like that for about a week before i tinted over them.
