thanks for the tip on the diy- one of these days i just might have all red taillights (except for reverse of course)
you know that the 99.5-01 tails are all red, and they look much better than any paint job would ever look...





i'm guessing you probably have the 96-98 tails, which have the amber signals....

The paint looks pretty good...Only thing with that is the lifetime of its appearance...If you are not using professional car paint with coats of gloss...every few months you are going to have to redo your tails...But that definately is probably one of the better products i've seen for the DIY...Show us pics how it turns out...

audi taillights are the best and smoking them just ruens it (i think)

Looks like every other smoked tail light...


*shrugs*

to each his own.

thing is. in many of these projects, there is more than one right way.

for me the right way is to leave mine as is.

That actually looks way better than I thought it would. I won't be getting one, but it looks decent on yours.

^^^^^Nevermind, I changed my mind...don't think they belong on an Audi...sorry.

I like the way the look (as been said, everyone to their own, and I have e-code smoked Hella tails on my Benz)... Ideally, I would pref. to have a little lighter tint, but nice apearance!
