Red rear lights fitted

fairzy · Post by **fairzy** » Sun Apr 14, 2013 2:37 pm

Finally got round to fitting my all red rear lights and clear side indicators today. I think it really freshens up the car...

Still debating whether to fit the grey inserts back on but I'll leave it for a few days and see.

Looks good.

Did you buy the all reds or lacqer your existing ones ?

Bought a cheap set off eBay that I lacquered.

All of the colours shine through as they should too - orange indicators etc.

I think the grey inserts will get put back on, just to break up the red.

Looking good. What does the reversing light look like through the red? Any chance of a pic?

Liking it.

Would need a picture with the 'fries' on to decide

That's the proper way to do it.

I've never been a fan of "tinting" lights with sticker tape.

The all-red look fits the sexy curves of the roadster extremely well.

I think the French fries (didn't realise they were called that but totally get it now!) will be going back on.

Always liked the 'clean' look of everything being the same colour, so all red is the best for me.

I'll get a pic of the reversing light but will be fitting a CREE led jobbie soon.

Talking of putting the fries back on - any tips of what to use? Got some heavy duty tape (for number plates) but its far too thick.

I'm not a fan, too much red, looks confusing

Looks loads better then the yellow fried egg look... but On sterling grey i think the centres smoked grey look better.

Nice

Be cool to see a pic with the hazards & reversing light on?
