powerhouse21 · May 6th, 2008, 11:43 PM

Hey guys new to the forums and a new 06 gt mustang owner. Im looking at some smoked tail and headlight covers at american muscle and some of the pics show a logo of "gto" i believe on the cover and some dont....Id like to know if anybody has these and if they have that logo or not because im trying to avoid that. Thanks

They are just stickers and come off real easy. I have the smoked fogs and I just peeled them off

powerhouse21 · May 7th, 2008, 03:54 PM

oh ok so its just stickers on there...nice. And ill bet putting up some pics now.

gragra73 · May 7th, 2008, 04:15 PM

I also have these headlight covers. How do you keep them from comming loose?

onederful100 · May 7th, 2008, 04:22 PM

the fogs stay pretty well, the tail lights and head lights may come loose a little bc those plastic things are not perfect.

powerhouse21 · May 7th, 2008, 04:24 PM

alright ill have to keep an eye on that...ive got 8k hids..i wonder how those will look with a smoked lens now

06GTMustang89 · May 7th, 2008, 06:05 PM

which HID kit do you have??

Why not wear your sunglasses at night also?
It makes NO sense to me to paint or tint your taillights.
Nothing like putting the people following at a disadvantage, wait until someone smacks you in the ass, then ask the cop why you are getting the ticket when you were hit from behind!

Dont listen to the guy above me the light covers dont block the light and if you get rear ended its because the guy behind you wasn't paying attention not because tail light covers prevented him from seeing a WHOLE VEHICLE.

I have both the tail light and head light covers and i love the aggressive look for the cheap price. I highly recommend them if you want something eye catching. The tail lights stay on there and dont fall off but the head lights do come off, I would suggest you get something to hold them on, i used guerilla glue in the bottom part of it and they havent fallen off since.

As far as the GTO signs those can be peeled off. What i did was leave one cover saying "GT" and the other blank.

I totally agree. I don't see why they tint headlights either, because it causes less visibility. I thought you wanted to see and be seen better at night, so you don't get hit. They may look nice as drazga97 stated, but you can see why they are better off left for show cars only, especially if you drive alot at night. And I don't know about any other states, but in New York tinting of the tails and headlights is illegal, and you can expect to be ticketed along with hefty fines in most areas with-in the state.

powerhouse21 · May 7th, 2008, 11:42 PM

i used the stick on type from ssinserts. they didn't fit very good and they started bubbling very bad within a few weeks. they were installed by a professional vinyl installer. they did offer to refund all my money, but didn't have time before i left to come to the desert

RetroGT2006 · May 9th, 2008, 05:20 PM
