How would I go about doing this? I know you can get tint spray and all but it comes out shitty a matt.

Seems so shiney and well done. Just wanna know how it was achieved

I reckon he's just masked the white bit off and then lacquered the lot with a gun to make it all shiny and blend into each other if you get me.

Yep, lots of lacquer makes it less matt and more shiny.

Germans,

Must of used standard clears then. Il have to have a tester on some scrap lights I think.

So he must of masked the clear off sprayed that, then took tape off sprayed whole light in red then laquerd it all?

so you could possibly get a similair and much more 'realistic' all red rear by using clear standard rears? so he must of masked of the white bit on the german ones in that pic, then wet sanded it and then another coat of red and laquer??
