Mod for black cars...
I was bored and playing with photoshop. so i made my car black and was seeing what it would look like if the tail lamps were tinted.. but then i said.. eh.. the 3rd break light would look good tinted black on a black car.. so this is what i came up with:
Normal:
Tinted:
i dont know if this has been done before but i think it would look hot.
i have a red car so it blends in any way. but black like this would be a nice little shizam!
Normal:

Aubergine (purple) was available for at least a couple of years for the c sedan (01 and 02; maybe 03). Not for the coupe, sadly, but it's a very nice color.
Current midnight blue looks to be a mix of that and navy.

I think it's odd that the older C's had the smoked backup lens stock.
Take care and enjoy the ride,![drive](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/driving.gif)

It's pretty much the color replacement tool, you make a selection using the lasso tool, then go to image, adjustment, replace color. There you can fine tune ur selection more by using the color selector tool. Now what i did notice is that you can't make a Black car colored, that just doesn't work, because what the tool simply does is adjust the hue, brightness and saturation...
The hardest part to this is making a nice clean selection. Have fun
