That is very close to what I was thinking it would look like. Thanks for the pic. Trust me guys, I'm not a big fan of clear tails, but I really think when done right these could look good. I'm dropping my car off monday to have it painted. Can't wait to get it done. I've been riding around with different color panels for months now! lol

that looks nice, but IMO this is best looking






because although this car is super sick, the red+clear tails make it look like an old es300




what i did was open them, wash, polish each piece and wrap them red

before:



on it..




result:


and with sun


sorry for all the pics.

Nice, I like the look of having them solid red. ........... Now I really have no idea of what I'm going to do. I just removed the badges on the trunk lid today, and I'm filling the holes tomorrow. I'll probably post a little DIY as I go along.
