I think it's pretty slick. He's selling them on tuners.

Those do look pretty nice. I know people were doing that with vinyl but that looks a lot cleaner with the paint. Good find.

I think those are actually tail light covers that were modified and painted. Check out how the triangle part on the corner of the lights sticks out. I think it's these modified.

But then again I haven't really looked to see if our lights have that same triangle sticking out so I could be wrong.

They do.

I'm not really a fan of it, but I would need some more shots of it to formulate an opinion.

But yea, that is pretty slick in my opinion. Definitely innovative.

Yeah, your right they are painted. I think they're nice but I don't know if I would do it to my lights. The reverse lights definately look like crap though.

Notice the mandatory red corner reflectors are completely covered up so you can get hassled with a ticket if you are pulled over.

Yup, I saw that other post too about the green painted tails.

Around here they notice that stuff if they are in the wrong mood you know.

They ticket clear tails too unless you have the proper square inches of red reflectors elsewhere on the rear.
