I really want 2 try this but dont kno if it will work...

Take the clear cover off the new ultra lexus lights, spray the inside(chrome/black bit) the colour of my car and seal the cover back on.

I think it would look cool, but if it wouldnt work, wud it b possible 2 colour code the actuall outside of the light so for example when the reverse lights r on they show up as a ring.

There looked to be grooves inside which one bit sits in another and is all glued so its hard to cut glue as u can get to it, i was thinkin of smashing the covers off completely and just having them as 3D looking lights if i could mould them so they curved round the car still

i meant making the lexus lights into 3D mate rather than having those like you have i would prob have those if they didnt stick out as much as they do
