JDM ones were red stops with orange indicators so I guess the answer is no unless you go custom-made. I dunno about the US, but over here all indicators have to be orange.

you can easily paint your stock tails all red...that's teh best and cheapest way... I did it at one point..looked great :)

dont paint clears....they'll look pink, plus you wasted the money buying clears ;) get some candy apple red paint and you're set :)

i was thinking about paintin' my sedan tails all red, but i know this might be a DA question...but do they make like transperrant (sp?) paint in red...or do you just ya know paint it with regular paint....

yeah..def. get translucent paint.. I think all 'candy's are translucent..so testors candy apple red works well...also, stained glass paint works..

My 91 has all red tails.. They don't flash red, but who really gives a shit what colour they flash?! :confused: You don't even see them.

Oh, I forgot to mention... If your planning on swapping 88-89 tails to 90-91 tails.. Be sure to get all three pieces, as the centre fillers are much different shades of red.
