sounds to me like some moron that blacked them out and put little circles for the light to come thru. I see that crap around here all the time.

Because trying to paint green over orange plastic would turn out to an ugly shit-brown color.

And if I paint it on too thick the light won't shine through.

Very good point. I was wondering about these tail lights. They're altezzas, but they're black like my car and not that ugly chrome plastic color. I really like them because they remind me of s2k lights, but I've never seen them in person


Have any of you seen these in person? I really like them in this picture. I don't have the cash or experience to do an s2k tail conversion. I just want to know if they look decent at all.
