I have seen those on here before and I think they look pretty slick, minus the white emblem on them. I'm sure theres a way to get rid of it though. Just make sure theyre legal in your area, too

I think you can just take those off when you want, right?
That's a better idea than tinting or painting. If you get pulled over for that just say you forgot they were on and take 'em off!

I have those and they work well. I had to play around with the driver's side headlight cover to get it to stay in firmly.
You can slip them off and on extremely easily. That's why I like them. You can also take the white GTS stickers off for a cleaner look.

there are plenty of pics in my signature.

Headlights are near worthless with them on.. tail lights are fine.
Our brake lights are bright enough to overcome the dark tint... you can see them fine.
I haven't tinted my third brake light just in case.

If you don't have fogs/driving lights... you pretty much have to take the front covers off at night.
