then use black tape(electrical tape) make sure you line it up with the black rubber between the orange and the red tail light
and also do the upper part
now take some newspaper and masking tape and cover up the red tail light and behind the tail light

It looks nice. Anything is better than that awful orange. I'd want to see what red tails look like on your car, though; it might blend in more on your red car. I went with red paint on the inside of my '95 tail lights. The orange clashed a little too much with my gold emblems and gold/tan paint, I think. And it's just so much cleaner.
Also, I wonder if they make transparent silver? I'd think it would look more like clears if the paint were transparent.

I probably wouldn't do this, but good work on the idea and paint. Here is a similar one that another user did which is probably a bit easier to do: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=218900
