when is say sand/paint i mean black them out. you won't be able to sand down the amber. it's all the plastic. on the newer ones, there's a film on the inside back of the turn signal that can be heated and removed. on the older ones (like you and i have) the plastic itself is amber.
as far as sanding/painting, there are a lot of youtube videos on how to do it, but essentially you:
1) fine grit sand the light so the paint has a surface to stick to
2) get some the tail light spray paint and paint them.
i believe you have to spray them a couple of times, let them dry and spray a clear coat on them afterwards. you'll then have black turn signals.
