My box is an 04 and I was following it the other night (friend was driving) and the 3rd brake light isnt red. To me it was more like a pinky-orange color. Im thinking sun damage to the plastic over the past 2-3 years and it possibly faded? Im using the same candy spray that I did my tails with to go over the 3rd brake light. Ill let everyone know how it turns out. Everyone go check the 3rd brake lights!

 

mines kinda orange.....

weird

 

ya it bugs me. also my friends give me crap for it. 'dude your brake lights are pink! AHAHAH' as if i dont get enough crap for driving the box anyways....

 

yeah well mine is also illuminated with bluish-white strobes instead of the factry light

its hooked into the brake light wiring... and in the 8 months that it has been like that, i havent gotten pulled over ......

 

hmm. I think mine is red.

 

im thinking maybe taking out the bulb, spraying the red plastic piece black and eliminating it all together....hmm.

redneckwithanxb- in socal we would get pulled over in a second for having strobes there LOL. i like the idea though, and the scion piece. that looks awesome.

 

thanks....

i did it because my first xb was totaled by someone who "didnt see that i had my brake lights on" so i figured i would find a way around that
