Finally decided to give the ole' red-out a try. I ordered the Rvinyl ones and they showed up at my door 3 days later. For installation, I did the dry method, which was combfilters suggestion. I cleaned the tail lights with rubbing alcohol mixed with water. I then just worked from the trunk side towards the front of the car while slowly using a credit card working out any air bubbles as it was applied. Seems to have worked perfectly.

Looks so much better!

 

Looks good caymandive. Also, just took a 2nd peek of your exhaust. Man the tanabe fits perfect on the is.

looks good.

 

Redouts look better no matter what color IS you have!!!

 

Thanks Comfilter! I think the Tanabe look pretty good too. Just wish they could do the full exhaust with x pipe instead of just this bolt on axle back.

Ben_r.. yeah I agree the redouts do look good on any color. After seeing just how much better they look in person I couldn't resist any longer. haha

 

That does look much better. Added to my to do list.

 

yea rvinyls are great, they match perfectly, best 8 dollar mod

 

Looks great! Will the red-outs fade?

 

haha, i love your license plate.

 

Hmm... redouts... hmm... should i go along with the crowd... should i be a non-conformist that way i'll be the unique one... i dunno, i kinda like the amber among all the red of the lens...

 

A+ ... much better look!

 

Someone should use that here in Cali...

 

thanks for sharing, now I know what mine will look like if I do it... that's real subtle though. From a distance can you really notice much of a difference? I might do it since it's only a few bucks ... and you can always peel them off if it gets old right? After all on my MR2 I even went to the trouble of spray painting the amber turn signal bulbs silver (they went in a clear silver housing and still lit up amber) to get a cleaner look. OK maybe I just convinced myself to do it.

 

I have a feeling it's already taken.

 

man gotta have them redouts lol them amber was bugging me :P great job i see an air bubble j/k
