I was looking on cardomain one time and I found an FB with stock taillights but they had circles behind them kind of like the Series 5 rx-7s. I wish I would have saved it but its too late now. I want to say it was V8Kilrs but I am not 100% sure. if anyone knows what i am talking about, please help. i am looking to do this to mine as well. thanks.

 

its easy to do, SEARCH

 

i've heard they're easy to do....by just cutting cirle's taping them over the cover and getting some black spray paint if im not mistaken that's how it's done

 

no, you take the lens apart and put the circles on the inside color reflectors, then put the clear utter cover on, but be careful, if you **** it up the middle will look like a dumbell

that looks pretty good, I like it.

 

that wasnt it, but that helps very much. thanks 2wankel

 

that is nice, i like it too

 

My car has them. There are only a few on cardomain that have this done. Heres a pic of mine:



Using the spray paint is a good way to do it, but I like to keep things reversable, so I just used a "template" with two circles cut into it and placed that behind the lens. Works just as well and if I ever get bored of it I can remove it.

 

i think it was your car that i saw on cardomain. i know it was a dark car, and i couldn't find it ever again. weird.

 

i think it would be cool to do the rotor shape...just an idea. Now i want to see that!

 

that would be cool^^^

 

has been done there was a thread about this earlier looked like a jackolantern if i remember correctly

 

i like my solid black taillights

 

have yu had any problems with the po po because of those?

 

well, i thought this would be cool. Paint the circles on the colored lenses, but then spray that "Night Shade" paint on the clear lense, so you'd have the solid black look druing the day but when you hit the brakes or turned your lights on you'd have the S5 looking tails lights. Just a thought....

 

ive NEVER been harassed because of my taillights, thats also in part because the light still shines through, yeah its a bit dimmer. but it can still be seen

 

your black out tails own.... thinking about doing that on my tornado silver SE..... got a write up???

 

How do you NOT make it look like a dumbell? Is it possible to make a tinted reflector?

 

i did this "mod" and i threw them on my girls fb.. im still not sure if i like them.

 

it just doesnt look right the black out tails look like they belong.
