thats is tint paint, same as tails. it just looks dark in the pic

Its not too bad. If you took off the headlight housing and painted the inside it might of looked a tiny bit better.. But not bad at all. Good creativity

If I followed college football, I might take offense to that remark. I don't so, it doesn't bother me. I'm not a really big fan of the OU followers.....ha ha.

Since we're talking about painting lights. I was thinking about painting the dark part around my tail lights. I was thinking of painting it the same color as the body. I've only seen one other person who has done this, but his car is blue and I can't really tell how it looks. If anyone has a lighter color car with painted tails let me know. Or if anyone is handy with photoshop, I'd appreciate a pic. Any thoughts/comments?

naw, it was to make a point to Jason regarding another thread.....and I couldn't resist revisiting that great flame!

Plus, I want Jason to repost those original pics, since I don't remember what they looked like.

it's also kind of fun to see all the new sigs, where everyone has different cars and stuff (AESoulchild, for example) since these old threads.
