oh if your headlights are black you should be fine, they look chrome from your picture, tinting tailights isnt hard get some window tine and some of the tint liquid, a squeege , and some time

Using 3 coats

3 or 4 light coats then clear coat.. i dont have mine tinted but i help a friend tint his cobalt ss. they look nice on a black car. i have all chrome taillights and they looked like a mexican car lol. so i painted the outline to black to match my car and it took about 8 1/2 hours. but thats alot more painting... im going to tint mine soon, heres what they look like now.

If you want to use a tint instead of night shades I'd suggest using lamin-x its vinyl tint and they have sheets or precut tint or sheets and they had the best deal I could find

Why the fuck would you buy clear tail lights and then tint them?

98stangv6 · January 18th, 2008, 08:47 AM

i didnt, they came with the car

tsp_2177 · January 18th, 2008, 10:29 AM

i want to tint mine but leave the back up lights white, does anyone know if thats possible with just the regular window tint?

HMUSN · January 18th, 2008, 10:31 AM

Sure is.

if your using spray just tape that section off if using tint just cut that section away.

tsp_2177 · January 19th, 2008, 12:45 PM

cool thanks doc, i might just stick with the window tint or something i don't know how illegal it is here in bama
