Smoked/clear rear lights

Depending on bodycolour and her pickyness, maybe you could bulls*** your way out of trouble with a can of matching colour paint, some 1200 grit silicon paper and a can of lacquer from Halfords (don't laugh... yet!).<br><br>Use 1200-grit (wet) to roughen surface and, ideally, to remove the BS and other castings marks.<br>Heat clusters in oven on 60 degrees C for ten mins, then gradually build up a layer of paint, with full thickness on left/right sides of clusters (i.e. where cluster goes round side of car) - make sure you can see the colour of the lens (but only just) under the paint where the lights peek through. <br><br>Finally, warm cluster again for ten mins, then spray a coat of lacquer on so it's paint-finish smooth, then back in oven for ten mins. Do this a couple of times, and leave to dry and cool for an hour. Voila! Body-coloured lenses. Keep a legal set in the boot for a couple of months, though - just in case!
