I thought he was reffering to something like this....

But not covers, actual lenses that are tinted. I think people do it using this...

Couldv'e been, but i dont think they make the taillight covers just yet. Unless you get the precut tints from ROCKBLOCKER (his username) on Srtforums. I believe they run around $35 or so, and you can get them for the headlights and taillights.

either way, at least all of the Black Tails for the 03+ are in this thread :lol:

yeah blackrose those were what i was lookin for. i know mpx only has em for the 00-02, and i love the way they look on 03+ neons. dodge's catalogue has em on the orangeblast sxt just like mine and it looks amazing. i wonder if they just tinted em or whatev.

The one's in that picture BlackRose posted are just spray tinted... Hence the can of Nightshades in the picture. I've seen quite a few people that have went that route. Looks pretty nice and it's more affordable than aftermarket taillights, too. :thumbup:

Hey dblsg, have you sprayed your 3rd brake light with the Nightshades yet? I was just drooling over your car and noticed it wasn't tinted. Still looks damn good, though. :thumbup:

no, i never got around to doing it, but honestly, i think i like it better the way it is. i think it gives it a little bit of contrast. :)

Tinted tail lights look great, you just need to take your time when doing them. Do the prep work properly; apply light, even coats; and finish the lights off with an enamel or clear coat.

One word of advice, don't tint yours as dark as I did! I put quite a few coats, nightshades dries much darker than when applied.
