I cant see it will be too long before you get tugged with those on, do the lights show through the paint? I would prefer the lights on my car to be seen, especially the brake lights! I tinted mine and gave them a bit of a shine, fits in well with the black grill across the back of the car, and it's done with proper tinting spray so is designed to let the light through, unlike yours if it's just body paint you've used. smile

Sorry but have to agree. A bit nasty.
I would be interested to see it at night with the lights on. I can't imagine much comes through.

Well after testing at night no complaints at all, all lights are bright. But driving during daylight hours they were rubbish so im told. oh well black it is!
But if they were a bit more transparent id keep em. After all who wants to be a sheep!;)

They do. my cars running 330 and its alot lighter than the evo's but you didnt seem to lag behind at all. I'm a bit puzzled. Also if you know of any local meets please post them on here as it is good to meet like minded car inthusiasts.

This was my effort, kept lights in place and masked before spraying with light-tint-spray. All lights work as good as before, (only applied two coats)
