#89439, "Taillight ideas"


          

I've got a cracked taillight, and I've got 2 ideas on how to remedy the situation. First idea, buy some black taillight covers and paint the center silver. OR, I'd like to buy some black TYC tails, and night-shade them so they're dark, but light is still visible, and paint the center silver. I just thought the TYC idea would be kind of cool and different....and expensive...

Either way, I'm painting the center silver. Think it would be cool to put a chrome mitsu emblem in the middle of it?

Keep the stock tails, you will regret it. I had some different taillights for a while and I eventually went back to stock. Best taillights you can have imo.

Here are some black TYC's tinted with nightshade:
I did it about 3 months ago:



It looked really fucking stupid! Dont do it, lol.

I recently just night shaded the stock tails, painted the corners of them to match the car, and then cleared everything. So Clean looking I think emoji

Do you still have your TYC's? I'd be tinting mine a LOT deeper than that, plus painting the center piece silver. I think, however, I might just go with the taillight covers, if it's going to be black anyway. My goal was to be as black/silver as possible, so you could take a B&w picture of it and have it still look the same, lol emoji Thanks for the input, your car is bad ass, btw.
