Taillight tint question*

Hey guys

Lets see on my C350 i got window tints and my taillights tinted. The thing about it is i have the whole taillight tinted, and i was thinkin of a way to do it so the clear part where the signal light appears isnt tinted.

(i want to do this without removing the taillight)

Please gime some options . Thanks ;D

If you don't want to remove the tail lights, just overlay it. If you want to do a proper paint job, you'll want to remove the tail light.
