looks nice but it will look better if the whole tailight was like that.

the pictures don't truly capture the color...looks different in person.
Hey Jeff, how school man? I was just going to ask if anyone has done this to their pearl max...dont know if i like it with just the inner black, maybe both the tops would look better but somebody had to try it .

Jepht I borrowed your pic, hope you don't mind

Gray look photochop:


Dark black look photochop:


I saw a Civic with the whole tail light tinted black and it looked so nice. It was actual dark black (with clear coat maybe), not like the gray look. You could also see the brake and turning lights fine. I want to do that, but the cops would start ticketing me

I'll make mine black/red later

I saw an Eclipse the other day with tinted tails but with clearcoat on them and they were much darker than mine...they look soo good. I gotta get clearcoat on mine already and I'm contemplating tinting my lights even darker..
