Anyone have any or know where to get them? Also, I see some people painted the inside of their headlights black...how do you do that? Can I paint mine the same color as my car. I've obviously started going mod. crazy.

Sucks about the tails....

What do you mean, when you get the next set back? Would you paint them for me? How much would that cost me?

Lox has them on his ST.

Painted to match headlights on your car would look better.

Heating them up in a oven at 150 for 10-20 mins at a time and useing screwdrivers to pry them apart will get the job done. You will have to do this several times to both headlights to keep the glue/epoxy soft/pryable. This will take you an a full day to do this. Give them a couple coats of paint or whatever it takes to fully cover them and let the paint dry over night. When putting them back together make sure you get all or as much of the old glue off of them. I had put them back in the oven to make it much easier to get the old glue off. Then use a Silicone sealer to glue them back together. I taped around them to hold them together till the sealer set up just for cheap insureance.

Aftermarket tails for your car, I don't believe there are any. Tinting them a little would look the best.

Here are my tails. "You might know where this picture was taken"

yeah, i'd do um for ya. i just sent out a set to someone on FJ. just waiting to get his set back to do it all over again. it's a little hardr and time consuming then that.. i take my time when i do them to make sure they are the best. i do a couple coats and let them dry for a long time to prevent the rainbowing that i see alot on others.
since we are throwing up pics. little dirty, but eh
