    I don't think they ever made tail light covers.

    You'll have to tint them yourself, or pay to get them done right. Clear coat + black paint = baller tint.

    Take that with a grain of salt. What you really want is clear coat with a couple drops of black paint mixed in. Aka, a pint mixed at a shop and sprayed with a gun.

    and that rustoleum crap just looks brown.

    He's not lying. Spray some on some plastic, then spray some black paint next to it. You'll certainly notice a difference.

    And if you mix your own using clear and black, you achieve transparent black without and red. The red pigment makes VHT appear more purple on tails. I've honestly to god seen VHT, Rustoleum, and Black/Clear tails on a GP, all right next to each other. When you see them side by side, it makes you want the black/clear. Back then... mine was the car with the rustoleum.... sad day.
