well... it's not exactly very "SE", but it's dark enough to have some "SE" effects, yet light enough to see the 5th gen tail crystal things.

I popped my tails out and used flat black, bout 4coats. I made a stencil of the 2 round areas stuck them on and painted over them. Came out nice, has lasted bout 4yrs now, still looks great.....those are the only rear shots i have 4 now.

if you paint them, make sure you put 2-3 coats of clear so the paint doesn't scratch off over time.

So my tails come off fairly easy...the lens of course?

I disconnected and popped out the whole tail light housing. Be careful near the sealant arround the tail light, u need to keep tht intact, to keep water out. U might want to pick sum up(sealant) just in case, i was fortunate not to need it. Other then that...paint...then clear coat. I wud go with flat no gloss....gud luck
