has anyone cleared their tails? or have any idea how to? cuz i think i might...should i do it myself or have it professionally done (if thats even possible)
thx

 

I dont think you can clear them because they are made out of red plastic. I read about some people on the tl forum that smoked theirs.

 

:thumbsdn: :thumbsdn: :thumbsdn: :ghey: :ghey: :ghey: :ghey:

 

I agree 100% very weird but it will be original

 

I remember back in the day when people use to make em for their car but taking the red plastic cover off. Then go to HomeDepot and buy those clear plastic taht people use for windows, the one witht he diamon/triangle cuts in back and shape it so it'll fit by heating and shaving it.

 

Yea, you need that clear stuff that goes over like those floresent lights. Also, youd need to rewire your turns since they light up all the time. (unless you put in red bulbs, which defeats the whole purpose)

 

yeah that's what it is! those plastic for the floresent lights. But i'll bet you'll get pull over in a heart beat cuz it clear and it doesn't have reflectors.

 

The internal housing is full of metal reflectors.

 

please dont we have the tightest stock tails out the best way to recognize a cl by there taillights NO EUROS OR CLEARS THAT WOULD BE GHETTO AND RICE

 

EURO = GHETTO

 

no teezys :x

 

yeah i like the lights that on there especially the way the turn signal is

 

well..i was just thinkin it might be koo w/ clear signalz mayb? i see so many bmws around here w/ their clear signals =\

but yeah...i looked at it today and i don't think it'll be easy doing it...plus it might look a little weird

the piece for the backups is already clear right? i have strobes in there and they look really white/bright

 

and cmon guyz.......SOMEONE has to do somethin different =\
not going altezzas or any shit like dat...just tryin to get it a lil diff lookin

 

What kinda strobes do you have in there? and are they your backup lights too? or do you have those in there too?

 

i threw out the backups, only have strobes on (not really a problem cuz its only backups and quite bright)

and...heh :o sorry to say but its APC =) got em cheap and dey work well

 

yeah, but at least do something classy if you are trying to do something different

 

like wut? any suggestions?
paint snowmen on it?



lol

 

Do you have to do anything to make the bulb fit? or is it just the regular size? I thought stobes were like a really small bulb or something. Anyways, also, can you change whether the pattern when its on, or does it blink like crazy when you back up, haha.

 

I was thinking about clearing out my entire car. Like taking the body panels off and taking the floor-board out and hood off of course. replacing the everything with see through plastic. But leaving my taillights the way they are.

 

I love the way our cars look from behind.

i like mine with the red on red back

 

yes i agree that red on red is really hot but yeah...not as good red on blue


oh the strobes are like mini tubes that you can just slip into the place that the normal backups go
i haven't figured out a way to control the strobe pattern...all it is is a relay w/ strobe attached to it and power wires

 

I surely dont think euro is ghetto by any means, however, there really isn't any point of clearing our tails....if they had amber in them I could see it.....but they are solid red.

 

How you smoke them?? Paint them with black paint or some of that black plactic covering??

 

okay enough about whether to do it or not...how about if its POSSIBLE? i really have no idea how to clear things like that can someone instruct me =) thx!

 

how about this idea? custom fit some 2003 CL tailights....now if you were to do that, you get mad props from everyone on this board.
