As I said to Pandy.. take the covers off, nightshade LIGHTLY the reversing and turnsignal lenses (the clear parts) and then rebond the clear covers back on. I always hated the "eyeball" look of the clear turnsignal lense with the reflector in the middle.

If you do a good job resealing, your leaks and fogging should be a thing of the past.

If your tib was any other colour but black, I would recommend colour matching the insides too.. but you are already there

Heres what you do!

Take the lens off the altezzas
Tint them a darker color (it looks friggen awesome especially with rear halos)
Then when putting it all back together have them sealed with a silicone or something!

Youll be more than happy and problem sovled

I have yet to see nice looking aftermarket tails for the RD1. They all look so ricey. The altezzas might look ok if you hid the ugliness of them by tinting them, I dont know.
