Pics of Yellow Fogs and Smoked Tails *night time pics*

by **FLASH** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 9:45 am

Got around to taking pics of my fogs that Louis did a sweet job on, and my smoked/tinted red tails.
I used Night Shades and one layer of candy apple red Testor's paint. The red is really only noticeable when you look up close in the light, which is basically what I wanted.
Louis hit me up with 9005 silverstars fitted in there, and I have silverstar headlights and turnsignals.

Below is the thumbnail followed by the link for the full size

Those fogs looks sweet and the black out tails are a nice accent to your non oem spoiler!

Does anyone know if there are legal issues with tinting the rear lights like that? Don't they have to be red for brakes and white for backup? I thought even in the day they had to appear like that. What did you use the candy apple red Testor's paint for? -JoeB

Nice Smoked Lights, Makes it look agressive

Thanks guys. Yea I'm pretty sure those tail lights would be illegal. The backup light isnt very visible. But you can see when I hit my brakes, and have my turn signals on, which is what I'm worried about, for the safety of others.

I did 2 coats of Nite Shades, a coat of Candy apple red, then 2 more shades of Nite Shades. The Candy Apple Red was just to give it a slight hint of cranberry red.

Lookin' good... I've seen this done before, but they taped off the reverse light so it's still visisble. Just be careful. Keep up the good work.

Am I the only one whose tint installer cut around the rear brakelight in the rear windshield so it wouldnt be [too] illegal?

I have an Aftermarket Spoiler with the third brake light on it. No need to keep the brake light in the car visible, even tho the light shines right thru the tint.[/u]
