So we have some extra tint laying around and I decdied to try and tint the inner tail lights just to see how it looks. I figured tinting the outer ones that show braking and signaling would be illegal correct? I only did one but how do you guys think it will look if I just do the two inside lights? The tint is actually holding up pretty well, if I redid it w/o wrinkles is there a way to make it permanent? I dont want to spen $10 on Nightshades and have to wait 2 weeks for it....plus I really like the shade of this tint. So whatcha guys think? Opinions, ideas, help?

I personally think the spray on tint would come out better. I also think that it will look a little awkward only on the inside one.

it is illegal, but it all depends on how leniant your police force is, i drive through new hampshire no problem, but my friend got pulled over in mass.

 

If you are tinting it to get rid of that chrome look, what about coloring or tinting the back face, thus leaving the lens covers clear? That way the light would still shine through bright and remain legal.

 

anyone know how to tint lights with the spray stuff? i was thinking about tinting my stock lights and have no idea how to do it. also where is it illegal to tint your lights, im in nebraska and they pretty leniant on the car stuff so i should be okay

 

i sprayed mine, its pretty much just like spray painting, except you have to apply a couple of coats. I think it is techincally illegal everywhere, it just depends on if the cops in your area like to enforce it or not.

 

all you really need is a bottle of black spray and 2 bottles or the large bottle of clear coat to give it that nice shinny look... clear coat is the key here.

 

Its called NiteShade for the spray on tint. It allows more light to come through.

So it is still illegal even if I just did the inner lights? I thought you couldnt do the main driving lights, as in brake, headlights, etc.

As for tinting the actual chrome...I would LOVE to do that, but I would not be comfortable tearing into the housing...as its not really all that safe of a project ...plus if I mess it up I have to go back to stock or spend more $$$

 

i think it looks kinda cool i really dont know the legality of the tint but i do see alot of people with even darker tint on their taillights

 

so if i were to spray the black on, u spray the outside of the light correct? then apply then clear coat over it?

 

You could just get a bottle of black spray paint,some clear, and paint the actual chrome piece on the inside and still have the clear lens just like Shadow1992 said. I think that might look pretty good.
