The foglight has to be red.

I painted the left bulb red with glass paint, so the light is red when it's on

I would like to do the same thing!

I'm still looking for a set of "like new" USDM IX tails for my VIII. But haven't found any luck locally to me. I will hopefully find a nice set soon, until then I'll have to wait

The guy's car was under construction.

He sended his lights first because because it did not matter to him that his car was light-less for a few weeks

After 7 days i received the tails, and then i sended mine to him.
My tails arrived 5 days later, so in about 2 weeks the trade was done

I can't really say I like either - I'd rather smoke the entire tail. The string of yellow (or white) breaks it up too much and makes it look cluttered to me.
