IX tails

Seems like it's very hard to get my hands on these. No way I am going to the dealership for this one. I'm still with my Altezzas and have thought about buying the JDM MR 8 tails. I've been constantly checking the for sale section but usually they are snagged up before I can get them. One worry I have about the JDM tails is that the turn signals are yellow but on the front left and right side turn signals are still going to be clear. It wouldn't look bad would it? I like them clear and don't think I would change them.

Why don't you just paint yours black inside? Voila: Evo IX Tails.

+1 here is my painted heads and tails. I added a black border trim around the tails to give it a different look

I'd be worried about condensation after taking the taillights apart and re-gluing. Maybe some have had success, but I know I wouldn't attempt it at my skill level.

with the proper amount of sealant it comes out looking good, that and allowing it to dry for long enough. I have seen it done with RTV and silicone, and both held up no issues.
