Not sure if Johnny Law will like this w/o the reflective showing. Just FYI. But looks good.

i've had tinted tail lights for the longest time and i've even been pulled
over with them on. only one cop complained and told me only to use
them if i'm putting my car in shows. this isn't as bad as tinted tails
since theres nothing really blocking the light, it just lacks a reflector
and if anything, you're at loss since it probably gives you less lighting
output when you're backing up. it has no effect on the brake lights
though since the brake lights have no reflectors, he just changed the
color.

Iv had these same exact depos completly blacked out... Not shaded blacked and nvr got pulled over... As long as u can see the lights clearly during the day and night cops in my town don't really care.... The bottom reflector is painted over the outside one is nitshaded just tinted a little... I'll get a pic of what they look like at night... And yea u might loose a little brightness when u reverse, but since I did my tranny swap I never had working reverse lights.... Didn't know how to hook it up so just nvr used it... And if u put in a superbrightled.com led bak there u won't have a problem with em....

Oh and thanks glad most people like them cuz I love them lol. I'd deff like to do more of these.
I'm thinking bout buying another set of these and doing them a little different and just selling these...

It will be done in a good way... Not everything would be color matched... Like just add some color in the tails

Lol the new colormatched fad.

BTW Indiana doesn't give a SHIT about cars. People have painted tails and drove for years, muffler dragging and all. It rolls? It's legal.
