brett purchase 90-91 tails and get rid of the pink lines in the top 1/2 by rincing them with hot water mixed with simple green, they come out sooo clean and look really good, keep your clear tails clear for show purposes if needed they are quite rare for g2's i gave my set to nate who was looking for over a year, if you paint the clears with a red translucent paint it just fades after a while and doesn't look great, hope this helps

Brett it's not the bad weather that will make your tails fade, it will be the sun.
