I just bought a 3rd gen lude and the tails are in pretty bad shape. Does anyone out there make clear or altezza tails for 3rd gen ludes?

How are the tails in bad shape exactly?

Altezza's and clears are frowned upon around here, stack with stock or OEM lights. All reds are cool .

Go to the local hobby store and get a bottle candy apple red transparent spray paint and some clear coat take them bishes off tapem up and paint away. My 94 accord tails were faded and I did the same. It looks damn like new.
