Tale of Tails!!

This is tight, I want my tails to be tinted like this. What's the best way to go about this. Keep in mind that my tails are 02/03 clear, and not completely red like the 04. Will it turn out ok or not?

I would switch them out for some '00-'01 SE tails.

Coolmax - i use to like the 00-01 tails, but the 02-03 grew on me, and i think they would look sharp with a slight tint to them. plus, that would men more money out of pocket as opposed to just a bottle of tint spray. I just don't want the spray to come out dull. I would like a gloss/shine to it, to blend in with the rest of the car.

jkklim - thanks for the info. will the niteshades leave it looking glossy/shiny?

I would just get 00-01 GXE/GLE lights and spray paint them (niteshades as was mentioned) if I were you.

If you smoke (lightly) 02-03 lights with crome, red, and yellow colors underneath it - it'll look like crap IMO

yea that's not one of the best 6th gens there are. actually there was a photoshopped pic of this car with dual tip muffler and i _think_ they lowered the wing which made the car look much better overall

?, will this niteshades allow me to put on coat after coat until i get the amount of tint i prefer? or is it after the first coat and it's real dark? i don't want to have it too dark, just trying to bring down the contrast a little, and have it flow with the rest of the car.
