bumoer lights

Was wondering if any one has ever seen or done JDM (black housing) bumper lights. I did my headlights and now i want to do the bumper lights but i was wondering if any one has done them. I have also seen someone do the Acura integ bumper lights. I tried the baking process and they don't come apart. Need to know if anyone has ever tried to take their lights apart. Cause the ones i have don't come apart

if you search, youd find out that its nearly impossible to pry them apart. theyre super super glued. the only other option is to "smoke" or spray paint the outside of them
