Repairing a Rear Light

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Tail light

It often happens that when retrieving your vehicle after parking, you find the rear light chipped, damaged, or even missing a piece. Before considering replacing it with a new or used one, it is possible to repair it with a special kit that includes adhesive strips, both the simple red cover and the honeycomb profile that acts as a diffuser. If the damage is only to the red part, simply cut a strip and stick it on after thoroughly cleaning the surface. If the break is on the honeycomb area, first shape a piece of diffuser film and then apply it over the red strip and glue it.
