Default Bumper Lights

I want to do something about the front and rear bumper lights (the orange and red ones). I have not been able to find any clear aftermarket ones yet though. I am considering haveing them painted the same color as the car but i dont know if that will work or not. I would appreciate any help or suggestion that anyone might have.
Thank you in advancve for the posts.

Ok did some searching for you and a few members have done tailight/side marker painting on their Lexus cars..

Here are a few links:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...threadid=55766

Anyways i'm sure there are more info on CL just use the SEARCH feature to find more than the 2 I just posted above.. Good luck and let us know how it turns out since no one that I know of makes a clear corner or tailight for our SC430 yet..

shaving the lights would be the best looking but it would be the most costly. also, repainting the bumpers doesnt seem like the best idea on a brand new car. i think im going to spray both the orange and red lights with the same indigo ink color of the car. that black looked nice on the black

I have an onyx black sc430. I found the diy paint but i also found a site that does it for you
Smokin Lights. I just dont want to be without my lights for days. I am also considering having the tailights smoked too. Would a body shop be able to do the same thing as smokin lights does? what kind of paint do you think that they use that lets the light still shine through?
