Smoked My tails

Went kind of dark. But I like it.

I'm pretty sure that if you're a virgin and looking at this, it counts as your first time.

Normally I'm against going so dark, but that looks slick.

Yup just one coat. It didn't look so dark on the ground haha. I was skeptical at first, and i'll probably get pulled over at some point by one of these Cali cops...but she does look sexier now.

Wow that's so dark. If it wasn't for the white backup light cutouts it barely looks like there are tail lights there. Personally that's too dark for my liking but it looks good with the lights on.

I got pulled over a lot when I had tinted windows and blacked out tails, I made mine dark red instead. The black does look good though, now black out that spoiler

It was like dusk when I took this pic so they look a bit darker. I'll probably just drive around with my lights on from now on so I don't catch as much crap from the fuzz. I'm hoping keeping my Massachusetts plates out here helps a bit.

You look like Cyclops in the reflection.

Lights look good though. Like Doggy said, black out that finish piece.
Miss ya bromosexual. No homo.

Cops around here give out tickets like they are candy for anything covering headlight/tail light lenses. It aint worth the hassle tinting always knowing a $120 ticket is right around the next corner. Its not a no charge fix it ticket here in Ca.. Plius if someone rear ends you and cop notices you have darkened taillight lenses and writes it on the report you are screwed for it now being your fault person that rear ended you saying he didnt see the brake lights as the lenses were darkened (seen it happen a few times).
