Only the LT1 taillights can be done that way. The honeycombs can NOT.

Yea the actual plastic that the honeycomb pattern is on is red. On the LT1 the red part can be removed once it is taken apart.

If someone makes it, I will be the first in line to buy. This would look killer on a black or silver car.

It looks cool however it is really illegal. Depending on the police in your area you could get pulled over and ticketed because they are clear and not red.

What if you got red bulbs so it's still red when you brake?
