Have anybody heard of these at all? Actually it looked quite nice, would look tops on Sihlouette Sorry I have no photo's as I couldn't find my camera in time.

I know of a tint spray the autobarn here in mexico sell for around 20 bucks that you spray on yourself. The told me it is pretty hard to get right but when you do it works a treat. Said he had done about 30 pairs of tail lights in his time and mucked some of them up beyond help.

Just wondering about any legal issues. The sprused up N/A with the "NA Thunder" exhaust attracts too much attention as it is. :lol: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11853-ba-xr6-with-smoked-rear-lights/#findComment-144110 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie XR6 Member 190 Member For: 22y 18d Location: Sydney Posted 17/07/04 11:49 AM Share Posted 17/07/04 11:49 AM Night shades isn't too bad when used on coloured surfaces such as tail lights. Just don't try to spray clear items like headlights or headlight protectors.It's near on impossible to get an even coat and when you get it wrong it's looks bloody terrible.Another cheap way of tinting your tail lights is to stretch over Women's sheer stockings. I know it sounds strange but a mate of mine did it to his car and it doesn't look too bad. It also has the advantage of being removed instantly when the Police want to defect your car.Wearing nylons isn't my cup of tea but each to their own I guess!
