PS, a mate had an old laser and we painted his taillights and headlights black (left only 2 small holes) and had no probs with the police, but i guess it depends what officer you get pulled over by

PPS, nick, give all automotive imports a call (look in yellow pages for # as i cbf), a friend picked up a black steering wheel for $50 :)

rofls what does a steering wheel got to do with tinting tail lights?

loooooooookkkkkkkkkkkkk @ his signature :) he wtb one

thanks boban ill give them a call. my tinting kit thing gets shipped today so if it requires any sort of thinking to do, ill write up a diy so others wont fcuk it up as much as i will :)

i used the sprasy on tint on my old car! did the job but couldnt get them as dark as i had wanted. anyway 16us dollars u cant go wrong! although i think i paid 12 bucks from autobarn and it was called VHT sun resistant.

I used spray tint from HobbyCo™. It's like $12.95 a can it's beaut!.. sprayed 3 layers on and looks dark during the day, yet the light can still be seen.. then again, it was only 3 light coats.. LoL..

It's water resistant and all that stuff.. it's like an enamel once set..
