Rear tail light black outs are not leagl in Ohio the law here is your tail lights have to be RED. Not sure about the head lights. But I do know that a tinted License plate cover will get you around about $98.00 fine had a friend that got that one. Its a cool look on a RED Stang if it is Legal in your state do it. I think the Covers are a better way to go so if you want to take them off you can. Good Luck

I would definetly check your state's laws about them before you buy them. I know here in CA cops pull people over all the time for having smoked lights.(for good reason)

What about the smoked lens spray american muscle sells? is that stuff any good? it looks nice from the few pics that are on there, but 30 bucks is a little much i think

I'm still skeptical on getting them. They look so awesome but it seems that it is more of a hassle. Is it tiresome to keep on putting them on/off?

I live in CA by the way. I have never been pulled over in my life lol.

Just spend your money on wheels, tires, suspension. Than worry about the little things. It will let you have more fun when your run out of money haha. I would say spray tint. Leave the headlights alone, do the front turn signals and the rear tail lights. Thats it. Headlights are sketch imo. Unless you want to do covers that are removable but still..

Yeah the car is not mine, the pink slip belongs to my parents. I'm not allowed to do any of those major upgrades, but rather minor ones. I have the money from work, but they don't want me or let me spend large quantities on my car. Yeah, it sucks..
