Original Tail lights?

So i am looking at this rx8 and it has really dark blacked out tail lights. I used the search button and cant find anything on it? Will i just have to order brand new original tail lights if i want to replace them?

Tint, for the taillights is very difficult
Dye, is probably totally irreversible

I'd recommend VHT Nightshade.
It's retively easy to do, and you can basically sand it off.

there are 3 ways i know of to color clear plastics. laminate(tint), paint, dye.

laminate you can take off
paint you can polish/strip/sand off if you really know what your doing
dye, i dunno
How will i be able to to tell which one it is ?

If the tail lights are in decent shape. <-- No damage or flaws then I may be willing to trade for my factory tails. If your in the u.s. then just pm me. We each pay shipping.
