It just doesn't look right with the center piece a different color, but at least it's better than before. Paint the center piece the body color and it should look pretty good. ;)
 
Umm why dgo through all the trouble of trying to make them look like the stock piece? Just use the stock lights. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

P.S. It doesn't look good when the center light isn't the same shade of red.
 
maybe try painting the center piece the same color as the lights... But over all i think it looks cool!
