Anyone have any pictures of a S4/S5 rear end with the center licence plate section painted to match the body of the car? I think that would be a cool look especially if the S4 tails were tinted.

Anyone?

When I was still rocking s4's on my TII. I had the turn and rev. lights tinted and the light housings and license plate section color-matched to the body.

I think it looked good (getting rid of the orange was KEY).

If I were you, I'd remove the lic. section, spray it using a good matched spray-paint, install it and then determine if you like it. It would probably take 20 minutes and $5. If you don't like it, respray the lic. section black and pretend it never happened

Here's a pic of my old N/A with lightly tinted s4 tails and color-matched (primer, lol) housings/lic. section:



Note that I left the 'reflective' rectangle UN-tinted, to allow better reverse light illumination.

lots of people do it. the guy who won the grassroots motorsports 2005 challenge did it on his V8 RX-7.

i think it's ugly though.

That particular car was a 10AE - the lights and license plate holder were originally color matched factory.
