i have no input or experience but i must say i really love the tails on the TIIs more than i do the FB's..
i guess get working around with some fiberglass and see where it leads. eventually you'll end up with what you want.

ive never seen the roundies on a FB but compared to most cars i always thought they were sexy...
what about putting a more double roung center behind the stock tails? they are already kind of round, but maybe with some work and masking it could look similar with less work.
guess we'll have to wait and see what happens here, it could get interesting.

My plan was to measure the actually lense, not the ribbed cover, and carefully calculate how big the circles will be and cut them out of window tint. I'll spray paint the tint black so no light can shine through and then apply it to the lense and put the ribbed cover back on. How do you guys think that will work?

No I'm not trying for the R32 look. The look I'm going for is S5 style where the lights will look stock until they light up. two circles for each brake light(two per brake light) and one circle for each turn signal while leaving the reverse lights stock

It has been done before. You need to remove the lenses and then apply the sticker.
Only problem is eliminating the dumbell look. The reflective piece tends to connect circles.

True, but I think that's a problem that can be fixed easily. Also does anyone know a good way to get the lenses apart and back together? They're held together by what looks like tar
