He is talking rears Had them on mine , looked cool but stopped too much light through

Dunno if any one has any pics of it on a car but fly eye is pretty good stuff. Very good tint but is still road legal so definitely lets enough light through.

Mine was road legal, passed an mot without even a mention, but go in convoy with an identical car I could see the reflectors a quarter of a mile away

fly eye is really good stuff ive tinted mine with fly eye =)

Why you'd want to reduce the light output of your tail lights is beyond me.

It looked cool in the 80's on Kit from Knightrider but not anymore!

Well all the front end its red and black and the back is mostly red so i thought it might just break the colours up a little bit more.

Can some one photoshop it for me ?

It does look alot better.

My tip is using tint-film and not paint, SHOULD be easier...

Just get some black paint ! Totally chavy and unnessecsary the level of light emanating from rears will deminish, therefore making traffic coming up your rear seeing you later, especially on rainy evenings or foggy nights leave them as they are

The film I have ordered is light black, it only puts a slight tint on the lights (see linked posts to Haydens headlights), not a full black out of the light.

I agree a full black out is unnecessary and slightly chavvy, but a subtle tint can finish the car off nicely.

Stu... how you get on with either the photoshop or your tinting ?
