I saw a guy driving around town the other day and he had the amber lenses in red with the reverse light still white it looked decent something like that would be cool and i saw a guy on ebay

selling all red one with some sort of exchane policy going on... but 200 bucks isnt my cup of tea for red lights...
now if i could buy a set of 968 lights and they fit the car along the outside body lines i could fab up some kind of inner panel for the tag area to mold around with the inside curve...
I seen someone with a parts 968 car and maybe they could take one off and see how well it lines up...

i have a suspicion the aftermarket stuff for vw golf 1 would fit - they look awfully similar

DIY Red Out
About six months ago I bought some " Oracal 8300-031 Transparent Cal " to cover the clear part of my 2002 WRX taillights after doing those I did the same treatment to my 951. Super easy to do with a good hairdryer, soapy water, squeegee and a Razor Knife. I will add a picture of the 951 after I get home. Oh yea the roll was 15" x 30' Paid $40.00 for it.

They arent painted..
If you read the add they pull out the white and amber lenses and replace them with red lenses...
Your factory lenses are reworked by a supplier that owns the process to convert the factory lenses to these All Red, Redout Tail Lenses. This keeps the cost down and makes them available to you at a fair price.
Some of lenses i have

However this plastic red tinting procedure seems the right way to go..!
Post a "How to" on this one and im sure you will get plenty of praise for it... im betting if you put together a small kit with enough material to do the 944 lights and instructions that people would buy them for 5 or 10 bucks a kit...
Just an Idea... cause honestly I cant think of what id do with 30 feet of this stuff lol
