    ok i just painted my tails red with "krylon stained glass colour" you can get it at any craft store, i took my tails off of the car to be safe, taped off the red part and the black outline and put 2 good coats on them, looks great, i don't think blue is legal but i could be wrong
    CoAsTeR has a how to on his site http://coastersride.cjb.net/

    hope this helps

    it might be legal... im in nj... i saw only 1 car so far where the blinker was blue... i think just as long as its blinkin to tel someone your turning... but thanks forthe tips... i think ill keep em onand just prep a lot... becuase if i take em out and cant get em back in i dont feel like having to deal with it... i have an abundance of tape and newspaper so im good... but myother question still remains... will it make it blink green cause of the yellow under it?

    red or yellow or orange... not blue or green, since more then likely they will be illegal.

    I'd say tint the lights... that would make the yellow look less yellow.
