justang07 is right. I thought about doing this myself...i just question if somebody rear ends my car am i going to be head at fault because the driver says they couldnt see my lights and the cops agree because they have been "altered"

My taillights have been tinted and at night or day if you can't see the red its because you aren't paying attention because my lights still come through pretty strong...my headlights on the other hand have been affected quite a bit so I ordered an HID kit to see if that will help some...we shall see...

They aren't as dark as they look, with direct sunlight on them you can see they aren't that dark...what really adds to the effect is the black housing inside the headlight...if you were to see the foglights and headlights out of the shadows you can see where the headlights look darker than the fogs, eventhough they were coated the same...

Yeah I have headlight covers and if you are looking at the car you can clearly see the lights on. You actually wouldnt think much of it. Its from inside the car looking out is where you can see the difference.
