let me know what you guys think of this, i originally made my 3rd clear and frosted it with the spray frosting....bad idea since it started going yellow, so i thought i would go back to red so i wouldnt have to keep buying bulbs after they burned the color off...this is what i came up with.

hey anderbra, ever thought of doin a clear 3rd brake and etching or sandblasting "alero" or some sort of design into it?
it'd be pretty easy, you could just throw a vinyl overlay on it, and sandblast it, then pull the vinyl overlay off.
or make a more durable one if you wanted to mass produce them, you could sell them for about as cheap as a vinyl overlay itsself, might be cool, who knows

Okay, whats the cost of a set of those tail lights? I've got to have a set, heh.

My 3rd brake light was a clear piece of plexiglass, until I painted it blue. It's pretty easy to make your own, you'll just have to put a silicon seal on it afterwards.
