I've seen a few coupes on here with those tails and I wanted to know what you did to get them that way. I want to shave the center piece and make my tails red/clear. I searched and didn't find anything, found some stuff for sedans, but that's it. Anybody know?

some people bought the full clear tail light (no red whatsoever, which is illegal unless using red bulbs). then they sprayed the bottom piece red with stained glass spray paint which could be purchased at Michaels or other paint shops. don't go to Hobby Lobby because they won't have it unless you get lucky.

that's what i was thinking, it kinda sucks because i can't find the red paint anywhere, michaels used to carry it but now all they have is amber paint. ah well.. looks like i have some hunting to do! thanks for the help dynasty

if you can't find it anywhere, i can ship you a spray can. i'm not sure if it's legal to ship spray can because it's flammable. if you can find out, you can send me the money and i'll do that for you.

u can ship a spray can, but only if u have an account with the shipping company compling with the federal regulations on dangerous goods...so I dont know if the average person can just ship 1 spray can...but if u can, then it would have to go on a cargo only plane like kitty hawk, or something...

I don't even think they make the all clear tails anymore. Especially with everything that recently happened with APC and their taillights not being DOT compliant.
