yeah, but if you put the solid red piece back on...I don't think it will really do much.
I think the best thing you can really do is add LED's.
I'm really no help I know....

spraying the chrome part black was the original idea Harrison, but now that they're open I'm lookin' for something a lil different. Color matching would be cool if I could figure out a way of replacing the red lens with clear plastic. I'd then use red tint for the clear parts that go over the brake and turn signal lights.
Any ideas on an easy method of fabbing up a clear lens?

instead of leaving the reflector parts chrome, go to a hobby shop and get some spray tint and lightly tint the chrome. I dont mean black it out, but a layer or 2 to darken it slightly. I think chrome reflectors with a FM surround would stick out entirely too much.
