Project F lights

I managed to get hold of Kid_dynamite's pair of lights although they were missing the drivers side lense
After getting in contact with non other than nono himself, it turned out he had a spare drivers side

which came in the mail today (he also sent some stickers as well!):
So now I have both lenses, one is pretty yellow though

but the one nono sent is very clean and clear
Ignoring the fact that they do need to be resealed and repaired, I was hoping to get some opinions, instead of keeping them chrome I was thinking of painting them red or black:
What do you guys reckon? any other ideas?

WHY spend a sh*t load of $$$$$ on the lights if you are only going to tint them black

On the inside Aza ...
And I say do the inside red ... If you black it out, it may look too much like a supra..
I wanted to do the blacked out look for front and rear lights.. But colour matched to the car.. Not the sh*tty normal black/grey ...

thanks guys
As said above, I would only be painting the inside, hopefully I'll will leave the lenses as they are
I am leaning towards blacked out, basically because they show up more whilst the red ones....don't lol

my 2c, black would be boring as crap.
They are a design to show off on the car.
I would either go body color so it looks like a part of the car, or leave them, as there is only 1 Project F.

Why add your body kit on your Suzuki Mike? Why add the wing, why change your rims. I know some may be for your track days but surely not all.
I know why, because it looks better!

thanks for your opinions guys
I'm still leaning towards black tbh, maybe red but definitely not chrome because I see so many aftermarket chrome tail lights, that it wouldn't actually be all that unique
034346: Project F in japan made 500 sets, must be around 10 years ago. Seen a few sets here in Australia but there aren't many.
