Default Modding TYC's to look like RS3's

Okay so I'm like halfway thru my project i just have to reseal the lens. Basically I used a dremel to get into the lens... popped out the amber piece and sprayed it with 4 good coats of red spray tint... here's some pics of the progress...

Looks good!
I'd like to see them with the lights lit up.
I'm wondering if you could have used some Blue Batmobile overlays and inserted those inside instead of spraying the yellow lens.

I contemplated doing the same but i didnt want them to possibly bubble up or whatever due to heat and have to take the lenses apart again... i figured this would prolly look better

whats the point if your lenses are tinted?

also, the two reds dont seem to match, thought about just leaving the plastic out and using a red bulb in there, might look better.

those are test lenses i picked up for 25 bucks. i have new tycs once i finish this practice lens. with spray tint or the bluebat overlays they arent going to quite match but they sure look better than amber!
