Coupe Facelift Tail Lights
HI Everyone,
So ever since I saw the facelift tail lights on the coupe, I wanted to buy them. Problem is I'm either going to have to shell out 1500 for the eBay ones, or I have to buy different pieces of the FL tail lights via offer up, eBay, and craigslist. The second option typically have slightly damaged tail lights.
Does anyone know if there is an easier/cheaper solution? For example, is there a way to open up the tail lights and tint or paint inside them black?
I already slightly tinted them, but they aren't the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The things is you'll never be able to match them with tint because it's the plastic internal housing that's different color (black) in the Facelift lights as well as the absence of three chrome reflectors. See my post here for the details as this has been discussed: Facelift tail lights vs prefacelift
Just a warning though the facelift tail lights aren't as bright at night... but seeing as you've tinted your lights that won't matter I guess
