Default Hey all, I want to paint my tail lights red...................
But the signal is yellow. If I used testors transparent red, would I get a funky color when painting the signal?

Has anybody done it with yellow tail lights? any pics?

Paint the whole lens for consistency, not just the yellow part.

Is it possible to paint your tail lights "from inside the lens". Or are the lenses red?
