"New" Tail Lights...Opinions?

I was at my local audioshop and this guy had just smoked his tail lights. He had some spray left over, so I told him to do mine, and he did and this is how they turned out.

I like them because they are dark like my : hood(cf hood gettin put on this week), headlights, tint, wheels, etc..

Opinions?

I think they turned out very nice. IMO I also think that that is just the right shade of darkness.

Thanks for comments....

Blue Honda Emblem : It came like that, eventually it'll be shaved anyways.
Civic Emblem Crooked : Same thing, It'll just be shaved eventually.

MSR 18" Gunmetal is all I know. I got them from the same place that just smoked those lights. $750 with Nitto NeoGens, mounted balanced, and installed.

Hahaha! My bad, asked the wrong question, but you still answered... Thanks!
I'm always confusing wheels with tires...
Nitto NeoGens, ok... 18's with NeoGens @ $750, good price man.


[EDIT]... Just thought about it... if you're rolling on 18's, how much is your drop?

It was actually the first FREE mod I've done cause I didn't pay for the spray, even though it's cheap I believe.

I heard there is a spray clear coat you could put on them, to make them shiny and not as dull...Anyone know about this. I heard you could pick it up from AutoZone.

"Glue" as in double sided tape. It comes of pretty easy. The only hard part about the Civic emblem coming off it the car is the mess it leaves behind. The side that sticks to the car keeps sticking with the foam that was in the middle of the double sided tape. I got mine off with an air-powered rubber eraser and came right off with ease.

I like it. The shade works really well with the tints! I was just wondering how the dark shade affects the brightness the taillights. Hopefully the cops leave you alone.
