Alternative to aftermarket tail lights Since some people have been asking about em heres the deal. I didn't wanna spend the cash for brand new tails so i just used spray tint on them that i picked up at a local auto store. Don't believe they are exactly legal but i haven't been tagged for em yet (Knock on wood). I'm gettin lots of offers to do people's tails now so get it right and ya can even make some cabbage off your friends. It just took me four light coats to get mine like this and no adhesive promoter.
If the upload doesn't work you can see em in the member rides area...

Rep Power: 0 I'll get ya a night pick as soon as possible, back up lights aren't really effected they shine through no prob. I was bailing a friend out of jail one night... long story so i'll skip the reason for it but anyway i was talking to the cops outside for a while and he was like "let me save you some money". He said my tails and window tint were fine but he went looking right for the little washer lights on the hood which i do not have or want at all. He said they were passing out up to $300 fines for em.
I'll see if i can borrow the digi cam from work so i can get pics up faster.

Rep Power: 0 You probably need to state what you exactly used to black them out. I like it but not sure whether it is legal around here. Need to check with my local popo. Please, a pic at night or in the day with brake lights.
There is someone else on here who I am suprised hasn't posted on here yet. He said he has tried almost everything out there and none has worked so he used clear coats and they turned out extremely nice.

Rep Power: 0 Hey I still didn't get my film developed but good news sort of...
I got nailed for my window tint by a state trooper and he didn't notice the tails at all... In broad daylight no less....
