I don't think they are that way stock but I could be wrong. I scraped my stock red lenses and they were red all the way through but
I don't know about the euro lenses or the group 4.

I purchased some of the inexpensive lenses and discovered they were simply clear lenses that had the colors applied by using some
sort of translucent paint.

The look was OK but doesn't have the new car shine that one would expect or want.

It is way more expensive to make them with 3 different colors of plastic so they make them clear and paint the colors rather than
having colored plastic. I only mention this because it explains some of the price differences and the quality is different from one
maker to the next...


>>>I believe that's how the originals are made as well.  They are clear plastic with tinting applied to the inside?

Or am I wrong?
