Modify Rear Lights

[matrixroyal]

Hi,

I have a silver is 220 sport and I wanted to improve the rear lights, I think the originals are a little bland and a bit too red.

I bought a set no eBay which looked good but now that I have them fitted, I can see that they look too bright / plastic / cheap on my silver car.

They look ok when they are turned on, but I can't have them turned on all of the time.

See pics attached, has anyone any advice or ideas to try and modify the lights to maybe make them a bit more colourful and less conspicuous ( in the bright plastic way they are now ).

Any advice appreciated, thanks.

Perhaps tint them?

http://www.flyeyeskit.co.uk sells tinting film for headlights (although they're currently out of stock) if you email them a picture of your car they'll send it back with the tint film applied to the pic so you can see what it'd look like.

Thanks for the replies lads, yes it's not too bad from the side but the back view looks very dead.

If only the bulbs could be red when unlit, that would help things. I am going to see if I can find someone that can modify the lights or at least look at trying to replace the clear bulbs with red ones, although I am not sure where to start ?

Has anyone any ideas on the type of companies that might specialise in the area of custom light modifications ?
