    this is a followup on my old thread...

    I am thinking of making a black vinyl overlay for the taillight...
    or
    prying off the clear covering and painting the inside black...

    and a little photoshop should share my idea

    thats nice somebody has thought about this already...
    for the meantime, ill do it my way since theres no tutorial on it, so ill document every step of the way...both vinyl and baking...hopefully it'll turn out the way i wanted...

    yeah it'll look a lot better with the housing painted black...think of the mazda 3 with their black housing on their tail light...doesnt that look nice...

    btw, i ask the dealer about the projectors...they said it wouldnt fit the usdm lancers with the ones that came with projectors like from dubai or something...is there any truth to that...
