Default TO DO , or NOT TO DO

Okay guys, I finally got another 95-96 right side tail light after breaking my other one trying to get the diffuser out. Should I attempt to clear out the bottom again? Or leave it as is?

I don't wanna risk it, but I like the cleared 95-96 tails so muchhhhhh

What you guys think?

after i got a replacement for the one i melted in the oven I gave up.
messing up once is an honest mistake. messing up twice the exact same way..

because i'm sure a picture whor3 lol

my old teal car when i did it, i did mine different from other people though, most people put diffusers in the clear section, i just left them alone and removed the colored stuff. I put LED's in the bottom section so it would keep it's clear look

Yeah, that's what I thought of doing also... LOL
It would be so much simpler.. I think I will do that, and leave it without diffuser if I can't get it apart.. wish me luck

Paco's teal SC looked amazing with them, so I'd say just go ahead and break it. The difference is definitely worth it.

Maybe if the car had aero it would look cool. But on a stock body, to me it looks like ***.

Stock chuuki tails are Lexus' best one for the SC.
