Anyone have any stock G35 Coupe tail lights I can buy??? I got a ticket and I needa replace em to get this ticket signed off...or if anyone is here in So.Cal maybe i can borrow them to get the ticket signed off and put them back and I'll give you some money....
Or does anyone know where I can get the lights for cheap?

 

what was the ticket for? having them smoked out?

 

yup....they're really dark

 

that sucks mang.

 

Yup yup.... I know it's a little weird for some random person to ask but seriously I needa get this ticket signed off soon. . I'd really appreciate it if someone helped me out .

 

are they overlays or actually sprayed tint on them? if theyre sprayed thats just another reason to get Bats overlays

 

it's actually spray paint (black + clear coat). I know I didn't even bother thinking about it at the time I got them. Again, if someone could help out i'd appreciate it sooo much.
Thanks

 

Since others will probably end up asking, I'll go ahead and request a pic.

And sorry, but I'm in TX... ...and I don't think you'll find them for cheap. If you have to buy anything, I'd look at buying the minimum assembly. It's available in pieces, so you could avoid buying complete assemblies, which are going to be pretty high. Fortunately, you're in SoCal and likely have at least a few dealers within a few hours of you. The car might not have to be down for long. And the new parts would give you a chance to mod them in a way to avoid hassles.

 

Have you tried Acetone/Paint thinner/Turpentine, etc? It should really just wipe off if it's just spray paint.

 

good luck i know they got strict on that now.

 

Exactly. Then, when you're done with the ticket, just re-paint them...10 bucks for paint at most to re-paint if you didn't do it yourself.

 

BINGO!! Didn't think of that.

 

Ya my friend was telling me today just to use paint thinner....I have acetone here at my house but it won't mess up the plastic will it? I want to repaint them again after I get it signed off....

 

you should test it first, sometimes paint thinner can be alittle too strong and mess up the plastic

 

yeah it happens...personally, i dont think it's gonna mess up plastic unless you directly poor over the taillight.
try put them on towel and start from edge and see what happens.
good luck and...maybe an overlay next time?
wanna see pictures of your taillights tho
