im definetly using paint, does anyone know how to remove the 3rd brake light? it will be cheaper if i take off all the lights for the painter.

thanks Irgnation ^
remove the inner cover on the trunk lid,then just apply some pressure to the light,it will pop right out.then unplug it.

sweet, thanks. i though that they were glued in or something, did you keep the clear square unpainted for looks or safety? i might go all black, what do you think?

Silly question...where did y'all get the paint from? I've heard of a couple different names on the forums, but I have no idea where to purchase it from.

Anyone ever seen a set of tail lights that have been tinted/painted just on the bottom? In other words, just below the hoizontal line? The huge rear lights are the only things that aren't A+ on the body, and I'm thinking about tinting just that portion of the lights. On a black car, it might make them look a little smaller. Sound goofy?
