Hard to say what I think at this point. It will be nice to see what they look like when they're done. Definitely thumbs up for originality! Good job! :thumbsup:

To many holes. But at least it is just a test so I didn't cost you.

two pieces of construction paper glued together and then sprayed over with aluminum colored paint to get the silver look.

I agree with sweet, that many holes will make the taillights look somewhat odd. I'm guessing you'll be using vinyl for this. I've honestly never seen any good headlights or taillights that look good to me that have been covered in vinyl, i think it just gives the car a ricey look. But who knows, try it out and see what happens.

I like the idea of trying it out with paper first, you get a really good feel for how it's gonna look before you do the vinyl work. See if you can get it down to 4 holes per light, that should be about right.

My opinion, vinyl tails will look terrible no matter how you do them. End of story.

What do you anti-vinyl people recommend? Stock tail lights are boring, clear ones aren't readily available, and I don't think they make covers for them like the headlight covers.
