Message	is for the new plastic... to replace my 15 year old scratched lenses. Makes the whole back of the car look new. Also, as good a job as you have done (and it is good!) your plastic texture on the white says "fluorescent ballast" and the red is "automotive lamp". The two are very different, but then again, from 20 feet away, it won't matter. Regards, vorpalZ                1990 TT
