Ups downs?
Thinking about doing it
My xj is blue and I don't know if it would look good on blue. I like it on white and black though
Opinions? Please

 

idk about u but my lights suck and so do alot of others on here. why would you tint them and make them suck even more???? that being said i think it might look like a buise.. all black and blue just kidding

 

marker lights yeah tint them heads and tails they stuck stock leave them alone

 

Haha that's true.
For now I'm only doing the marker lights
But I might get hids we will see

 

Use some stuff called VHT Niteshades. It'll be in the spray paint section at pretty much any autoparts store. The depth of tint is based on the number/how heavy of coats you use. I did 2 light coats on my taillights, 3rd brake light, and markers and think it turned out really well. I wanted a smoked look, so the light wouldn't be impeded too bad, and it turned out really well. Stay away from the headlights though, even if you do HID's.

 

Alright cool I'll look into that.
Do you have any pics?

 

Front markers - lights off


lights on


Rear lights off


lights on (these are just he regular lights, not the brake lights)


They've faded to about half that tint over the past year, so I'll probably do another coat when the weather's a little nicer. They look blacked out in these pics (it was cloudy), but when the sun hit them, you could easily see the amber color of the lenses.

 

Nicee I like them looks good
:thup:

 

i use my sikkens clear and add a little black base coat to it n spray all my lights ... makes it shine up and u can add extra coats if you want em darker..

 

Here's mine with the tint spray

 

Looks great on black
I'm gonna do it. Get my baby back tomorrow

 

Yea it looks pretty sick easy to do just make sure to do it when its a little warmer so it will set right..after 2 coats turn your lights on and kinda see where you are as far as brightness if its good then after that just apply to your preference I think I used 5 or 6 coats on the rears and 3 on the front markers.. good luck post pics when your done

 

I myself, wouldn't. I don't need to give our police force, any reasons to pull me over. (there's good and bad, in any profession. Ours are mostly bad. Ought to see where they place on the web site. Ratemycop. com)

 

Alabama police aren't strict about that we have ppl driving here with out front ends.. if you upgrade your bulbs it will be just as bright as before..

 

Heres a pic of mine with smoked amber lights.
