Tail Light Tint
« on: Mar 31, 2004, 10:16PM »
Yes well i did the tail light conversion a while ago & while i love it the fact that one light is slightly diffrent to the other really irks me at times & i would not mind em being a bit darker to not only hide the fact a bit more but take a bite out of there age.. make em look a bit newer. So im looking for tail light spray (black obviously) i know it's not legial but most cops could care less about such minor things besides it's not all that noticable if you don't apply it heavy lol. Any way im woundering where i should try for it. Auto barn etc ? and how much should i expect to pay ?

And there's not much I can say
But we miss you every day
And I'm bitter 'cause it's unfair
We'll be drinkin' in the sun
Playing music having fun
Cause one day I'll see you there

called vht night shades as someone already said. 15 dollars from autobarn. then when u get booked its $20.50 to clear a defect, plus more for new tailight lenses. I suggest you dont bother. They are slightly tinted anyway. U can however use that stuff to tint the side indicator lenses and the front indicator lenses. looks absolutely awesome but again, illegal. Ur choice tho.

u still will get defect for it i gaurentee. if u get pulled over your gone. They check everything now days. Persoanlly id say dont bother because the hassle and cost u get for defection doesnt measure up to how good it looks.

I've tinted my lights on my Pintara T. I used Nightshade, went halves with a mate and worked out to $10 each I think. It is easily removed with turps or eucalyptus oil. I tinted my front indicators and rear lights.
