why dont you guys just heat up the lights in the oven rip the covers off and then spray them with candy apple red coloring you can get from a hobby shop just make sure its transperent
usualy the color on the sticker on the top of the can is like metalic lookin not sparkly but like shiny
it only cost you like 8 dollars at the most and as long as you spray the insides of them they will come out perfect everytime

*sorry for being so blatant but some people just don't get the point of spending more money on a quality part. I guess some people still prefer APC to HKS....

We would rather spend the extra money (which since we all spent 30K on a car, so we can swing $300) and get something that looks good. Spray tints all look cheap and leave a film which just doesn't look right. However buying JDM Evo 7 tails gives us the look we want (although a little pricey) and we don't have to sacrifice staring a ricer option for covering a ricer tail light.

Nope, spacers working fine. Even took it out this past Saturday on the street tires for autoX practice day. No problems at all. 3mm spacers are so thin they aren't even noticeable staring at the rim from 2 feet away.
