Is it better to get the lights tinted or just buy the covers???

[Youngin]

covers are better so if you get pulled over you can take it right off and put it on later but i think tints look nicer

[GatoStang]

thanks. i already ordere my headlight covers. now i can order my tail lights

[ROUSHME661]

id go with the tints not the covers..they peel off if u wanna take them off so its not permanent so if u get pulled over just peel off the tint and re apply later lol ... i went with the spray tint so if i get pulled over im f'd over

[Murderjetz]

tinted tail lights are illegal? even just very lightly tinted?

[ROUSHME661]

they are not in most places but around here wher ei live theyre starting to get on ur butt about it ...ive been pulled over a couple of times for them but i just tell them theyre not illegal and they pretty much cant do anything about it...

[mustang1072]

i went with the tinted covers and they wound up blowing off... so i bought another pair and dabbed a little bit of super glue in each corner... and that works great!

[Murderjetz]

lol you can just tell a cop that it's not illegal and they let you off?

Cop: Do you know how fast you were going?
You: yeah...but it's not illegal.
Cop: You're a good kid, sorry I misjudged you.

lol i wish i knew i could tell cops what was and wasnt illegal, i would have saved myself a bunch of trouble and money!

lol...yeah ive gotten pulled over so many times for speeding when i wasnt ...but they just take a look at my radar and give me a warning ..man that thing is a life saver haha ...but yeah just if they pull u over be cool with them and ask if its illegal and if they say it is just ask for a warning most the time they will..

also fighting ur tickets helps too most the time u win cuz they dont show up to court..i know by experience the cops already know my car around here so theyre always trying to catch me for something

that used to work but now there is a new law that says even if the cop doesnt show up to court the judge can still give you the ticket

[Onemanzu]

i know cops are nuts... my sig says it all

[Nameless122]

[Youngin]

lol he said he ordered it already. and screw static cling . i bought the tint covers TWICE for all the lights cost me like 200 and i gave up cause i had so many bubbles =T

[ROUSHME661]

You have to know how to apply them not to get bubbles. It is just like window tint but on a much smaller scale. Remember this mixture 50:1 water to dish soap and use that as a medium to keep the transfer from sticking until you get it where you want it just be VERY careful about rubbing anything against it for 2 days to ensure the medium underneath the transfer dries well.

all u need is a little soap in a windex style bottle with water...shake it...and clean the taillight 1st then apply to the light again and tint strip...and place on...use your license or come kinda card to push the water out...the mixture doesnt have to be science...if u get bubbles doing this then 2 things...ur rushing and or not doing it right...i did it my 1st time perfectly and within about 20 minutes...whats pain in the ass is the vinyl insert between the headlights...thats a pain in the ass being i did it while it was windy and my vinyl got stuck together lol but it worked out bubble free and crease free.......

i still have a set of both tints for all the lights including the pony package fog lights . the only place i still have it on is prolly the 3rd brake light. thats the only area i didnt have bubbles and what do you mean 50:1 dish soap ? i was just gonna pay 150 dollars for professional on all 15lights and give away the static cling nonsense
