Thanks for the input. Was not a fan of blacking out the red and leaving the clear part. I want to paint the chrome trim around the windows black. I want to paint the door handles as well.

I just used a red transparent piece of vinyl. used saran wrap to cover the tails and trace the clear part of the taillight with a sharpie and then transfer the saran wrap to the vinyl retrace and cut. spray the taillight with water and place the vinyl strip over the lights and use a window tint applier to smooth out.

How does the Stillen lip actually attach to the bumper? I heard it is a DIY, but does it come with instructions? Sorry for the slightly OT post.

The lip fits the bumper very snug, it takes two screws on each the inside of each bumper and double sided sticky tape.

Great looking Max. I like originality. Great idea on the all red tail. I almost thought it was the tail light from a Altima coupe. The fact that you did the tail with vinyl is PERFECT. Means you can take it off any time. That is what some guys here don't realize. I love vinyl, lol.

when i first read "all red tails" i thought it would look funky. now that i saw the pic though, i think they look good! i want to do the same vinyl but a smoke tint color over the clear part.

did you also do vinyl on the mirror signals? if not, what was your process there?
