I love the look on a white 8. It looks nasty on black as well.

Cool

I'll bet this will look really clean on Nordic Green... The stock tails are a little flashy (and getting old) and I'd really like to try this. Where can I find your preferred brand of transparent red vinyl? I'll post picis whenever I get to try this out.

I got a roll of it left over from when I had mine done. Probably 6' left in the roll. It's like 18" wide. Shoot me a pm if your interested. You can see a pic of my tails above.

You only need maybe a foot and a half for each lens. I have enough in the roll to do at least two sets of taillights. I'd sell it for $30 shipped. Let me know.

Hmm... We may each both want a little more than required in case this ends up being as difficult as the OP says... I'll tell you what, you're obviously pretty interested, and our 8's are the same color. You go ahead and do this, but make sure you PM me when there are pics available, so I can see if it is something I really want to do. Does that work?

Has anyone tried the Vled's backup license plate lights?

Nice black and red light backing. It matches the rest of the red lights on the back.

I hated the clear stock tails..at least on my WWP. They just look too much , in the words of Jeremy Clarkson "like something off a spaceship" . They do look better on a red or maybe blue 8 though

Definitely planning doing this to my BB.

I'm really diggin' the carbon-fiber look on BB too.

With that, you really don't even need a spoiler.
