tail lights help

I'm trying to make the white patch on my reverse lights red to blend in with the red tail lights. Is there a product that can do this? If so what is it and where can I get this?

Damn....they even have "RICE" in Canada! I would have thought it was way too cold or quite possibly it's brain freeze....

I have a black 04 coupe and I did it. I like it because it gives it a cleaner look, and no one can figure out how or what I did. Its like a sneaky mod IMO. Anyways as far as illegal goes I have never had any issues, plenty of tickets for the tinted windows and plate covers though.

You guys are whiners, I don't even have reverse lights.

Take them to a body shop, show them what you want to keep white and get them to spray red candy or red base clear onto the lenses.

DONE /thread.
