hey guys! Need some opinions. I'm gonna "smoke" out my tail lights, but I dunno whether to leave the indicator and reverse lights as they are, or "smoke" the whole thing. I own a 99 hatch. Any suggestions?

dont smoke them.

but if you do insist on doing it, smoke the whole light instead of bits and pieces!

lightly smoke it. about 2 layers is good enough.
if thats ur in ur atavar then i wouldnt recommend it. looks silly silver with black lights. my mate did it to his silver merc and it looked real shit

hey mate, if u wanna smoke em then do it! that's what modding is all about, trying new things, get sick of it, and doing it differently next time.

but if i were u, i would smoke d whole thing, yes, around 2 layers is good, 3 would be max. just bare in mind tho dat ur blinkers will be not as bright and u might hve a problem wid d cops if they happen to be following u from behind. but more importantly, its quite dangerous during d day coz some cars can follow too close and they cant see u blinking and u might get a toot of d horn or 2 every now and then. just hope that no-one bumps u from behind. d trick is to start braking slow way before the turn so cars behind can see what ur trying to do.

i've done d smoke tails, and im going black housing this time....but like i said, ppl go through phases with modding. so GOOD LUCK!

yeah, i've thought about it... i've already done it to the light on the rear spoiler, looks pretty nice.. my car being silver, hence the indecisiveness.. thanks for the suggestions dudes.. i'll think about it for a bit more.. black housing does sound better..
