How to make euro taillights

1- You have to mark the red lense to know where you will cut it. You can use masking tape to make a rectangle. That show you what you will cut.

4- Put 2 thin coat of primer on your front lense. After the primer is completely dry, apply 2 or 3 coat of paint.

5- You cut a piece of plexiglass a little bit bigger than the red piece you cut in step 2. You can glue the plexiglass to your front lense with plastic glue or clear silicon.

6- You cut a piece of plastic the same shape of the back of the front lense. You can paint it or put anything you want cause it will be the background of your taillights.

7- You have to cut the extremities of the back plastic of your taillights.(silver plastic).You need to drill two hole to put some socket for your backup lights. To made those socket i used paint cap.
