i saw a 240sx that had only the rear corner lights and the trunk lid where the lights were was like a panel with the white rectangle lights in it but it .. (refer to this pic to see what im talking about   http://www.visracing.com/bodykits/ni...x/technor.html   ) do any of you know where i can get this ?

It looks like all he did was paint the middle part of the tail light section the same color as his car, but leaving the back-up lights clear.  It's dark outside right now, so I can't go and check to see if his tail lights are the same, but they look like it.  I don't think it's a kit that he bought.

SEChick is right.  I've seen lots of pictures of this - people tape the reverse lights and shoot the plastic.  I also know that at least one of the four or so people I heard doing this bought a new center section to go back to stock - it's not cheap.

might want to look into this as an option or use the same technique so to speak to do that to your tails for that part.
