Default cracked tail light accident

some retard backed up into my car and left a couple of dents and cracked my drier side tail light I was planning on using th VHS stuff and blacking them out but its cracked i have checked online and the prices for these cost about 50 a piece so can i get those bumper covers? will they snap on over it? and then I just black them out some more? let me know

what yr and model? what bumper covers are u talking about? bumper cover is the lower part and does not include the tail light lenses if thats what u are wondering. better to do it right and get the lenses. can get them used, just have to look. may be a good time to consider the style of lens u like. the old style or new style.

well i am trying to make a all black camaro i got just about everything but then this stuff happens and u have to remeber that the other side is still ok so what i was asking is that with the taillight cover will it black it out so that you cant tell that its cracked and will it still be over to cover it?

u know i dont know for sure if they replace or cover i think they cover. i would think u would not see it. the only thing would be were the crack is. if there is an opening then there would be a bright spot in the blackout when the light is on.
