Where to buy taillights overlay?

I have the normal white/red style taillights, wanting to buy those red overlays that covers the white part of the lights. Any idea where I can get them?

Thanks

panameras, I'm not sure where to get the red overlays, but if you like the almost full red tailights from the 550 Edition, they have them at Suncoast here:

Panameras,

Try this link. Tail light red overlays are 47.00 for the set for 986.

I find the overlays VERY tough to use and make fit. I was refunded my money by 2 sellers because on both attempts, they didnt cover the whole light. I like the idea though and recommend buying a whole sheet of the stuff on ebay and trimming it on the lights.

OR just buying red lights.

Thanks for the replies.

chaudanova, yes the full red look is what Im trying to achieve. If money was no objective I would certainly get the 550 edition replacement.

Quickurt, thanks for the link.

maxferran, buying a whole sheet is a great suggestion, in case I fail the first attempt.
