i think the clear middle piece looks great on your car, the old center looks way off from the new brighter painted tails

I'd say it's all or nothing... I think the clears would look great without being painted... Only on a white car...

But it looks weak with just the lights painted and the center piece clear.

Same with the black center piece...

I would say (since you already painted the lights), go ahead and paint the center piece too.

he prolly used testors transparent candy apple red, you can find it in the model car section of any wal-mart, it comes in a small spray can for 2.99, you will need 3 cans to do the center and both sides

we used stained glass paint (in a spray can of course). spray the inside(may need a few coats) let it dry then spray a clear coat over it.

this is a pic of my car. we used the stained glass paint on the front bumper lights.

I'm with him. I painted mine white and i liked how it looked. Instead of it looking like its one piece, you actually have something that divides them, or looks that way.

This is the best pic i have of mine:
