Q: How did you get those lenses out?

I'd like to paint (or tint) both those and my front side marker lamps (that aren't even installed on euro-spec cars) but could never figure out how to remove them...

With PlastiDip I did them right on the car. I taped the entire rear bumper off and then just did the lights.

I did the same on mine although I went with a medium tint trying to match the rear taillights color - still allows the reflector to show when a light source hits it and looks a lot better than the bright red.

I like it! I'm going to do the Lamin-x on my turbo this coming weekend. I hope it turns out as nice as yours.

Question, since your plasti-dipped the lower lense, does it still illuminate? My guess is that it would look extremely dim and broken.?

Regardless, looks nice! I plasti-dipped my rear emblems and lower rear door "chrome trunk trim."

Good info Marpir. I haven't had the chance to look closely at them. If the Lamin-x film doesn't hide them, i'll use your technique.

Thanks for the info.
