I love tinted tails.I did mine on my car.It's all murdered out I love the way it looks.I used vht niteshades it works good then I clearcoated them a bunch.It made them way more glossy.The ones in the picture you have look a little dull.
 
Yeah,whatever you like.I think they look awsome I'm sure they arent that dull the pic just looks that way.I cant belive you kept the talon and the reverse lights.I would never have the patience to do that LOL.I really like how you did that though.:hellyeah:
 
I like it except for the Talon letters still being orange. May I recommend masking around them and spraying some transparent red paint over them? You can get it at most hobby stores and I actually did one set of tails like that. And add some shine to that black.
 
Eww steeler colors! just move to pittsburgh and use that as an excuse for the cops and you will be fine. Honestly though, looks like you took your time and put effort into them and they turned out good.
 
+1 on not going over the reverse lights. I have mine the same way and left them clear. Looks great that way!

I would look into painting the talon letters white. Just to match the other lettering on the car.

Did you tint the CHMSL as well?
 
Hey this might be a bit off topic but on the 2g eclipse how do you get the center light (the one that doesnt light up when stoping) the color of your car do you peel of the eclipse letters an paint or what?

Yes.
 
I wouldnt worry about getting a ticket for them because they are tinted.I have had mine tinted and they are really dark for about a year and never got bothered.I have been pulled over 7 times in it for stupid shit like exhast,license plate in window,a supposed out licenceplate light''was not out'',window tint that is legal. Just a bunch of dumb crap but they havent said a word about the lights.I thought I would get bothered a lot for them but I do a lot of night driving and at night you cant tell the difference.When you brake or your lights are on they still light up bright enough.
 
man, i just saw your work and i think it looks pretty amazing. i just did the same to my tails except i have the center section painted black and i sanded the paint off the letters and tinted them. i think mine looks pretty good but now that i see what it looks like without tint and the rest of the lights blacked out i kinda wish i would've left mine alone and not tinted the letters. yours looks sweet man

oh, and i just realized you didnt do the reverse lights. thats something i didnt bother taking the time to do LOL but it looks like it payed off because it looks sick.
