C230K Taillight thread

I got this photoshopped in the General forum (thanks Revstriker, and nice try Accord). I think it looks great, and was hoping others can submit other ideas.

Next time you aren't busy, how about taking the 2 "indents" in the tails and making them white (preferrably on a car without the taillights smoked, but either way doesn't really matter).

Removing color is much much harder than adding color (or tint). You might as well get down the measurements on the stock taillights and go find yourself a good plastics molding shop.

I'm not thinking about ACTUALLY doing it, just to see what it may look like.
