Default Painting Integra taillights on ebay.

How hard would it be to paint the outer clear part red. and get it to match up. Could it happen? Thanks

why dont you just get oem 98+ integra tails? they might cost a bit more but how can oem let you down?

yea those could look pretty good if u get some amber bulbs for the turn signal. but it could be as easy as just getting some transparent red vinyl or transparent red paint.

That would make more sense to me. Aftermarket taillights just don't fit right.

Just get the OEM ones and call it day, seriously...what it the advantage of those...I would bet anything that the OEM quality is sooo much higher than those.

Well new OEMS are over 200. and these are $66 shipped. I know the 94 tails can be painted all red. I jus wondered if these would work as well. or maybe better.

I would sell them. Some people want UKDM tail lights. and those look like UKDM tails to me.

I'll take those over red or OEM orange corners anyday...
because they're UKDM style =P
and they're not a total Altezza with them ugly *** circles...
It's more like an OEM with a clear signal light. 66 shipped is cheap!
