I've had my rear blackouts for about 4 months now and I absolutely love them. There is no fading or scratching on them at all. The only thing was that double sided tape doesn't like the florida heat, but I just put some new tape on to fix. I don't think they look bulky at all, I think they make the rear of the car look so much better.....These pics were before I took my dealer badge and GTS badges off so don't flame me lol...[8D]

Yep, they're nice but too bad you can get pulled over for them! Even during the day they claim that you need to have no tint over your headlights, or taillights (which should be obvious why)!
I use my headlight covers during long day trips on the highway to protect my plastic headlight covers.

I like that idea! Is it a hard plastic cover or how does it work?

Well I cant compare them to the tint because Ive never seen them up close but I like them. Just didnt think they would be SO dark at night. lol About the GTS lettering, ya Im going to remove that just havent got around to it. As far as legal---dont know. Probably going to depend on the cop that sees them. I do know thatIve seen alot of them on other vehicles. So??? And about price..$37/$37/$27 for all. X-MAS gift

How can you get pulled over ? Therye not illegal. There is no "obvioius why," as to why they shouldn't be on your car. The light is still plenty bright to see especially during the day. If you can't see that I'm braking than you probably should not be driving. I've never had any problem with mine from the cops and we probably have some of the roughest cops in the state of FL.
