Default Tinted/painted tail lights are in!!(PICS)
I got all the back lights in from my Peep's at Auto buff's. Everything turned out top notch and the craftsmanship is incredible. Hope you like the pics and the lights.

The brake lights were the red/clear euro brake lights. I had them painted transparent black and the blinkers left clear with yellow signal bulbs behind.



The 3rd brake light,side markers,reverse lights I had done in transparent EB to match the car.



An everything shot!!

Those look really black and shiny too! How's the light when the brakes are applied? The blue on the reverse lights and sidemarkers is really cool, does any light show through them?

Look great broseph! Makes the rear stand out. Those Autobuff boys do really nice work.
I gotta get down there next weekend, and see them bad boys up close and personal.
Now, go paint the dam screws.....

As joe put in the thread it is transparent black and blue!!!!
The light shines thru about 80% from factory. It will never be 100 % like factory.

The cool part is, that you let me know this was happening so we could hang out and do some 12oz. curls.

Oh wait a minute . . . you didn't tell me sh!t. Never mind.
