Smoked Tail Light Pics Are Up!!!
You can view them in the Members Rides Section.
I live in Santa Cruz, so doing this for you guys would be a whole lot easier. It takes about a day. You give the tails to me in the morning, hang out, and you will have them in the afternoon ready to go.
Just let me know if you want it done, or if you have any questions on that thread . The title of the thread is "Smoked Tails-by NoBottleJustThrottle"
Talk to you later

ive driven all over San Jose, Fremont, Union City, Santa Cruz, Marina, Monterey, and have yet to get pulled.
I think they are only illegal if they are not reflective through the smoke job. The ones that i do are very reflective. You can still see the red and all the reflectors even with the stuff that i use on them. Here in Capitola (near Santa Cruz) the cops are bitches! I have had them pull me over for exhaust, my car being too low, my lights...and they have yet to say anything about the tails. I have even had a cop ask me if i can do it on his car.
I understand if you dont want it done...but maybe you can have a spare set for going to shows with or something. I guarentee that my smoke job is one of the best, esspecially in this area.
About the pics...they are under the thread name "Smoked Tails - by NoBottleJustThrottle" posted up by wcsjunior.
Later~

weapon...dont worry about it at all.
Even if you do get pulled over for it (which i havent heard of with any of my customers) the DOT imprint is still on the tails...so just go tell the cop to check out the DOT approval imprint on the tails and to go home and eat a dohnut.

im always going to be around on this board (2k1civic.com)...anytime you want it done, just drop my a PM...i'll be happy to do it whenever you want, i would just like to do a group at a time if i could.
As soon as you are ready, i have another guy thats wants it done in about 2 months, so maybe that will all work out.

dude, if you show up in the morning, my buddy can spray them, we can hang out, and you would be driving home in a few hours....the major part of the waiting period is making sure they are dry

yea im in Santa Cruz...thats only about 40min from San Jose with good traffic over 17. I use heat lamps to dry...it doesnt take too long. After it dries, i put a thin layer of wax on top of that to seal the new clear coat too.
