Tail light mods for a 1996 Max

Are there any mods that I can do to my tail lights on my Max?

You could open 'em up and remove the light-scattering piece from the lower (red) part for a kind euro look. Or you could paint some spiffy design on them. Other than that, can't think of much.

you are not able to take out the amber in the 95-96 tails the housing is one solid unit, the only things i know of are.

a. try and find some red clears

b. try and find some clears and paint the lower portion red

c. altezza's (yuck)

d. altezza's and paint around the circles so they are sort of like skyline tails

e. pay a a$$load to a body shop to mold another cars tails into your's.

that is all that i can think of for the moment but if you have any questions on any of these just try doing a search.

I generally hate Altezza's, but I've seen one or two people who've done this and I like it. Got a question, though (for anyone who might know)... How hard is to get the outline to match up to factory paint? And once done, do they blend fairly well (hard to tell in some pictures)?
