just so you know, those are illegal because they dont have the red parking lamps on the side exposed; cops around here are real touchy. i think summitracing.com sells the black tint paint for tail lamps for like $7

Some Autozones have different kinds of adhesive vinyl stuff. I have some of the carbon fiber look stuff. That'd look straight on the tail lights.

JUST SO YOU KNOW! At night (the only time i use my lights) you can see the marker light as well as the reverse! Its just transparent paint! I knew they would be illegal if i did the whole light! The only thing illegal about my car is the tint! But i just went to the eye doctor and got a perscription for my tint and i can now tint my windsheild to 40%! Which ill be doing next week! Dakota

just put a phat type R sticker or a gtr sticker or even dohc sticker on the tail lamp then paint over it then remove sticker! Then at night when people are behind you and you hit the brakes theyll know that your packin heat!Dakota

Just buy some sheets of clear stickers, put em on it, then use an exacto-knife and cut at the curve... just let it be enough so that it'll tear easy when you rip it. Then rip it, and use that stencil for the black vinyl. *shrug* Just thought that up on the spot.
