most people use red paint, they have a transclucent paint you can paint the light over with... all you do is tape over the white reverse light section.

I dunno why, but thsoe taillights hrut my eyes and appear very depressing when I look at them. Seriously, I feel incredibly sad now that I looked at that picture, wrd... And no, I know nadda about the taillight, jsut wanted to add randomness.

open up the headlights and peel it off. the clear/yellow lens piece may even pop out.

There is usually a yellow insert, you'll have to pull the whole lense, and come in from behind, but it should be removable.
