Just make your own, buy some clear taillights and paint them yourself. I am in the process of painting the ones I have on my hatch, just have to do the outsides still.


BTW, the hatch is primered, not white, I am working on redoing the entire exterior one panel at a time.

It is made by Testors something like Candy Apple Red transparent or something like that. You can get it at hobby stores, I got mine at Wal-Mart in the model car section of the toy department. It comes in the form of a miniature spray can. Works good and looks good too as you can tell.

Looks ok. I think it would looked better if he would have left only the amber part white.

I have red clears on my del sol that i constructed out of some old school altezzas. They have the design of 92-96 lude tail lights i guess. The whole top part (about 85%) is red and there is just a strip of clear across the bottom that contains the reverse bulb on the inside and the park lights on the outside.. Ive only seen one other del with em, they really dont look that bad bad and nothing at all like altezzas.

it would look better if he would have painted the top curve red and left only the reflection part that lights up clear...
