Just tinted my fog lights yellow from them!! It's good stuff, much thicker than expected and easy to fit with a bit of heat.

Gonna do my back lights too, very soon.

I was following a Punto with dark tinted lights yesterday - it was SO dangerous!!!! I initially thought he didn't have any brake lights - then I realised they were coming on but were very dim - three words "Don't do it!"

Yes good point. Keep it subtle if your gonna do it and don't black them out.

Slightly tinted - Nice

Blacked out - chav!!

I don't agree with some of the above remarks.

Some cars have tinted backlights as standard after all.

Personally I think it's okay if done sensibly using a product which is meant

for the purpose. I'm sure some of the members on here would disagree.

In any case... Behold.... The chavmobile ... ;)

Where did you get the film from to do that?

It's Lamin-X

I agree with mr gerr, if it's done properly it looks the tits, exactly like the above, same as merc lights used to be, dark clear bits and bright red rest of the cluster. But If it's done poorly it'll look **** AND be dangerous.

Wow that looks lovely worried it will look chavy on my blue car now

Grr666's back lights are bang on!!! Really nice!!

Nothing chavish about that.

It's the car's with 2 pairs of their mothers bingo tights over their rear lights that I think are chavy!

Grr666 - Is it your car with yellow fogs?

Just done mine. Not sure about them yet against a red car but my fog light surrounds are black!!

Fabla - you got any pictures of your fogs? I was thinking of tinting mine yellow, but not sure how it'll sit with the red. Cheers.

That Looks MINT!

what exhaust is that and how did you get your badges like that?

Thanks Ryan, :thumbup:

It's a Blueflame cat back. And the badges are engine cover badges part number 1Z0 103 940 D

approx £8 each from the stealer. They did need a bit of fettling to get them to fit. They are stuck on

with high quality double sided foam tape. The hardest part was making them fit the curved apertures.

I used the radiator in my kitchen to warm them up and then carefully bent them to fit to curve.

They are very slightly smaller in diameter to the "proper" badges approx 5mm difference.

Ummmm, there's nothing there? :S :p

Flippin ek! I'm thick...

Here it is.

Fogs are more clear now than this as they were a bit misty after fitting them.

Edited by Fabla

Cheers!

Car looks good, although I'm not too sure on the fogs really. Might look quite good if you tint the main headlamps slightly though?

Thanks for the image too. :thumbup:

Not to sure myself really but it makes people look at your car twice!!

Forget this tinting business, RED is where its at...
