I tinted my side marker lights this weekend, I also painted the wheels I use for autocrossing. why my autocross wheels you ask? Because it wouldn't have bothered me as much if I didn't like the way they came out. I did like it though, Not going to paint the factory wheels as I don't think they will look as good painted. (A little too bulky IMO)








Clearly, this was before I tinted the markers

Looks good, but I think your autocross wheels stick out too far.

Nah, He just needs a 4" lift and He could start doing off-road Autocross... jk... looks good with those blacked out side markers.

Neither am I, but I plan on getting 18x9.5s for autoX, then using these for my street wheels. Problem is I still have a lot of rubber to use up on the 19 inch autox tires before stepping down to the 18s (went from a stock to street prepared class) so I have to get to a point where I need new autox tires, and can afford a new set of hoosiers, 18 inch wheels, and a good set of summer tires all at the same time.

What method did you use to tint the side markers?? And what wheels are your autox wheels? Nice mustang!

I used the VHT Nightshades, clear coat, and a lot of wet sanding and polishing

The wheels are Drag DR-37s

Nice!!! Also digg'in the color of the car, all you need now is that black 5.0 emblem ;0) Did you plan on tinting the front headllights? That's something I plan on doing to mines. Anways, car looking real good bro.

I have HIDs so they are a little dark to begin with, I am getting an Elenore grill in the next few weeks and after I install that I will decide if I need to gently tint the fogs. I have already set my eye on the black emblems from DG Designs, they start with OEM logos and then black them out, so they have the same heft as the stockers.

There is a lot more to come, just have to wait until after the holidays.
