Bump to the top..........By the way, what method do you think would be better?
1. Get "Night Shade" to tint the clear part
or
2. Get transparent color vinyl at a craft place and adhese it to the clear part.
Anyone have any experience with the second choice?Thanks.

Option number one, if seriously wantintg to do it right, then one would go through with prepping the taillights as they would for painting the exterior of a car.

Cleaning the taillights and painting the clear is common and often used, but I also sometimes hear about the taillights eventually fading more often with this method. Not instantaneous, but eventually which is true for both, one more sooner than the other.
