might be going off topic a bit here, but has anyone tried painting them from the inside, pulling the cover off and than putting it back together??? IMO it would look less illegal as the red/yellow would still show just be a bit darker
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?

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..

Reason: no reason........
yeah not too worried about that. ive been pulled over maybe 8 or 9 times, and am yet to get defected for: bald tyres, illegal exhaust, open pod, lower than 10cm in some parts, and (haha) different headlight bulbs. so yeah how do you go about painting them?
Hey mate check out my smoked lights. They look mad as.
But also depends on the colour of your car. Never been pulled over by cops and been defected for it.
