yet more work carried out today, rear lights tinted, I tint them by a process of using standard car lacquer (10 parts) and mixing with standard black (1 part) and then applying thin coats till the desired affect is reached, good thing about doing it this way is its very translucent and very high gloss:

Masked, flated and ready paint:

While I had the 9 inch cutter on the go I got a bit carried away and lopped this out (the middle box) and welded in straight pipes and still running the pair of standard back boxes, makes the note a little deeper.....Perfect.

There definitely bright enough, in the pic the flash went off on the camera and even with the flash lighting up the back of the car they still remain bright.
