ive wanted to find some taillights for my SB too. As far as I can tell no one makes any aftermarkets for the SB yet.If your just looking to black them out or smoke them, you can get high quality3m film from lamin-x.It will protect the lights and looks much better than spray tint.Just a suggestion.

The current generation Sportback models are still relatively new, give it time. You might see something come summer time.

I don't know that there is a company who make them, but if you're looking for or have seen the LED conversion for our cars there are a few threads about them here.

Just do a quick search for "LED tail lights" and you'll find it.

The thread(s) will contain a link to an eBay seller. I'll see if I can find it and re-post the info.

Yes, I understand that. However if the OP contacts the eBay seller, I'm sure they can arrange to have a set made for the sportback. It's the same build process.

:) The 2010 sportback is listed on the ebay store as a car they support.

True that, you`ll never know. They might already be making it!

I don’t know of anyone who makes aftermarket blacked out taillights since they are very hard to come by. I did a search on the web about it and I found that you could make your own blackout taillights.

After you have found the lens you want to tint, use a green Scotch bright pad scrape off the parts you want to spray. Then, wipe it off with a rag.

Take a can of VHT Nightshade and spray the can some distance away from the taillight. Depending on the darkness, you may put as many coats as you wish. Then let it dry for about 5 minutes and re-scruff the taillights.

Finally, put a few coats of clearcoat on the Nightshade parts.

Most ebay vendors ASSume that SB tail lights and sedan tail lights are the same. Ive personally contacted atleast 4 vendors and said "you know those sedan tail lights wont fit a sportback, right?" with responses such as "REALLY?" lol.
