Lol I don't have cobra tail lights but thats not the point I am making... I am saying there is nothing wrong with tinting them if you want the dark look...the only reason I think you wouldn't tint them is just to show off but some people don't really care...


And as far as the SC pulley, I think the smaller it is the most boost is created, cause if you have a smaller pulley, the belt will spin it thus causing more revolutions or minute or second or hour or whatever lol


But to the OP: if you like the smoked look then you can just buy them off craigslist and stuff. I've seen sprayed and clearcoated/wetsanded tinted regular GT taillights go for relatively cheap. You could buy that and swap it out, and just keep the cobra ones for later if you want to swap it back.

Oh my word, I just got to work and I'm IN FRICKIN LOVE. Why didn't I do this sooner??? Why I ask you? I'm gonna make a thread in OT tonight.


Oh, in case you didn't figure it out I BOUGHT IT. Wow I'm strung up. I worked all last night, have driven all day and now am working all night again.
So did you get it?

By the way 562cobra you should tint your windows lol

I'm probably the only guy who doesn't recommend 5%!!!!! 5%!!!!! like everyone else

I think 35% front/quarter and 20% back would look great on your car, otherwise if you are worried about cops like I am then I got 50% and 35%

I went with 5% on the rear and 17% on the sides. 17 is pretty dark, its just in my sig pic it seems light because it was so sunny out.
