I have a (metallic) black 2000 Boxster S and I currently have red with clear/white taillights. I've recently ordered red/black taillights with LED's. I like the look of those taillights in a black car, because the dark/black top of the taillights seem to 'vanish'...

I now was thinking about wrapping my spoiler in a red reflective vinyl, which would give the car a '4S look'.

Did anybody try/do already?

I couldn't find a picture of a black 996 with black/smoke and red taillights on the web, so I choose a silver one with clear and red taillights (as a reference as to how it would look or what I mean):

I already found a silver coloured Boxster that has done it:

And so far I like it. I think I only would also fill in the little opening/gap where the spoiler 'goes in' and the lamp is rounded (if you know what I mean)...
