There is some spray material that is transparent similar to Krylon Fusion but dries clear. I've seen people use it on their tails for the Scion xB.

Go to the srtforums and look for a company called rockblocker. They make kits of transparent vinyl to cover srt tails, corner lenses, fog lights and so on. Would be worth a shot to see if they would do 00-02 tails.

i pmed them one time about doing 00-02 headlights and tails, they said they would need one to base the size off of and i didnt bother to ask about a price, but if you find one out let me know. :)
