Bootleg JDM taillight mod.. anyone?`
so i pretty much hate the stock evo taillight with that nasty altezza look..
i wanna get a pair of jdm evo VII tails but unfortunatly i have bills to pay and a slipping clutch..
i was thinking about buying some sheets of Red tailllight film and doing a little overlay on the stock tails to make them fully red.
i figure its as cheap and close to the jdm tails i could get.. plus it might look pretty good actually and i got nothing to loose i mean if i dont like it i could just pull it off u know?.. well anyway was really wondering if anyones ever dont this before? if so how does it look? ik its a paiin in the *** i've instaled taillight tints before very time consuming.
but does anyone have pics of this done??
should i do it? gimme some opinions..
this is what it looks like on a wrx.. http://www.decalfx.com/red_tail_light_film.html
the only difference in look would be the little bar reverse light/blinker bar (??) on the bottom of the taillight would be red as the jdm VII's its like white..

lol he charges 165 to black them out so i assume make them evo 7 style is the same price or cheaper + shipping of course i can ask him or have him pm you. Forget that peeling off crap. you can buy evo 8 tails off this fourm for like 80 if you choose you want to go back and sell your painted ones.
