Corners

Has anyone done anything cool with these? Im thinking about making clear ones and putting red bulbs in OR making clear ones, tinting them black and putting in red bulbs.... what do you all think?

Sorry the pic didnt work. Im talking about those little red corner tail lights that are on the rear quarter panels at about 2 oclock from the rims.....

Oh... the reflectors.

I believe they are required by law to be red. You could maybe get away with finding some clear ones and putting a red bulb in.

Another reason I got a red car... tail lights and reflectors blend in.

Red lenses look the best on a black car; I feel clear lenses are hideous.

I think it would be tight to get some clear ones, tint them black, and then put red bulbs in there. That way, they are functional at night, and look sickkkkk during the day.

Depends on how many layers of tint you put on. you could just shade them or black them out. it is a progressive tint spray
