A couple of years ago i stumbled across a thread where a guy took apart his S4 tails and made them look much better. I thought I saved it but I can't find it now.
Well, today i took apart my tail lights and can't figure out what he did. I've spent an hour searching and ahve found nothing.
Can someone tell me what I'm looking for.

 

he threw them away, and put in S5 tail's....

 

funny but not true. s4s look much nicer and fit with the lines of the car better.

there are two routes i've considered taking.
1. black out the lenses. i've seen it done well with the spary tint.

2. rebuild them with led strips instead of bulbs. i've never seen it done, but imagine the led strips off of a newer cts... that would look killer!

i cant think of much else you could do to the s4 tails...

 

Yeah I've seen them with LEDs. They were hawt.

 

i demand pics!!!

 

That sounds cool, but I don't think he just tinted them. I remember him taking them apart and doing something... maybe he replaced the lenses with something else. i can't remember.

OP is this the thread you were thinking of?

both are cool. still waiting for all three lights to function properly tho So far, I've only seen the top row function.

To tint the lenses, you have to take the tails apart.

 

That's what I was looking for. Thanks need RX7.

 

you can certainly tint s4 tails without taking them apart, I did my old s4 tails from behind, remove the bulbs and spray nite-shades in there.

 

Glad I could help.

 

As much as I want to make some comments,
I'm going to leave that one alone.
