Outstanding job on the tail light! Why didn't someone do this before?
So far it's the best look I've seen for lights.

gotta add this thread to the list of Best Threads 2006! Very nice work. You are probably the first one to do this on the 97 Tailights. They look great. What did you do to make the orange part red? Did you paint it red? If so, is it really necessary to cut off the orange piece? I want 97 tails now.

If so, is it really necessary to cut off the orange piece? I want 97 tails now. I used a special type of spray paint for both the red, and for the silver/black. If I had more info on exactly what I used, I would let you guys know... but the cans were pretty much blank. A friend of mine let me borrow a red spray which was meant for lights, along with a can of black spray that was intended for lights as well. I'm pretty sure the tail lights are still 100% legal... mainly because the lights light up perfectly, and the reverse light is still clear and very visible. I had a 95 3000GT VR-4, and the tail lights were all red from the factory (no orange at all)- so I'd assume these lights are still legal too

Thanks for all the compliments guys, I really appreciate it. Basically, my intentions were to make the tail light all red, and do something about the yellowish tint on the reverse light area.
Mission: Accomplished.
