Many of you may not know this but I was the originator of the painted and tinted look on the Dodge Chargers. I did the first one way back in November of 05. Anyways I decided to put a new twist on my original idea and offer what I call "Tail Lids"

Basically they are made of fiberglass and match the lines of the tail lamps. They are held on with 3M double stick tape and once applied look like our painted lamps. Normally it would cost you close to $250 with the shipping if you were to send your lamps to me to get the same look. These are currently selling for $129.95 on Ebay.

I will also be putting together a kit that will include a 35% tinted film that once the cap is put on will look like our painted and tinted lamps.

I realize that this may not be for everyone, but many people who lease or just want the look and to save money may like this option.

Here are a few more pics.
