Tint the turn signals, the amber stands out now alot! Once thats done, it will look so sweet, maybe a black chrome pony woould help too.

yes you definitely need to tint the turn signals and do something with the pony. either geta black chrome one or take it off completely.

enjoy dodging the police.

I say leave the pony, but do the signals... blacked out with the GT's and pony on it would look great. So either leave the pony or take off the GTs too (and add black rims).

+1 I really want to black my car out but not at the expense of road illumination.

I just drove it at night.... I think what I'll do is get real headlight covers like the ones designed to let light through, and leave the fogs blacked. The road illuminated, just not enough to my liking.

Tint ratings work from the inside out, ie 5% transmits 5% of the light on the inside.

So in short using 5% tint you divided the amount of useable light your car produces by 20, thats huge
