Whats Your Thoughts On This?

[skyln-r33!]

This is my Audi Quattro and I decided to do spray smoked tail lights after a fail attempt with the sticker film and this is my outcome! I left it for a full 24 hours before I applied the clear coat. So these photos are before the clear coat was applied. Today shall be the last coat of the pretty shinny stuff I know the bumper needs spraying but shoosh, ill get there.. I also did the Audi rings on the front in black but I wonder how long it will take till a cop decides to have a go at me for it... Well Im happy with my achievement, I think I did well also if anyone on here has any knowledge on Audis please let me know because I'm having a few issues and wouldn't mind some help in removing the issues

Never understood the point of tinting lights. Sure it may look cool (to you at least) but you are making your car harder to see at night, which is why it's illegal.

With gympie on this one

You are supposed to spray the inside anyway...

Not a fan.

i DID see some new audis with darker than usual tail lights - not as dark as obviously tinted, but darker than your typical lights which made me think they came like that from factory. coincidence that you did this on an audi as well

Are most disliking it because you dont see the point in it or simply because its on an european car? This car will be turned into a race/rally car when I can afford to do so and the dark tail lights were part of the plan and considering I can afford spary paint and really like smoked tail lights on Audis ONLY and a few Mercedes..

most are not liking it because its not a smart thing to do. . . if i plowed into the back of your car because you slowed down/stopped and i didnt see your brake lights because of the tinting then my insurance company has just cause to refuse any claim for repairs on your car

I know for a fact my break lights, tail lights and blinkers are absolutely fine and bright enough. Its not even really that dark.. You can see my lights perfectly in daylight and night. If it were to be a concern where someone would run up the back of me because they arent visible enough, I wouldnt have done so. But they are as bright as they were before..

Woah, I had an audi 80 as a first car and I do like the older euros.

Point making is what others have; can be difficult to see.

Haha wow that's cool I have never seen another cat like mine in Australia yet. I swear I may have seen one but not sure. But yes every ones point of view is different. Thought I was getting the negative responses because I'm a women and women apparently suck at car stuff - bit sexist but that I'd reality these days...

what's worse than tinted lights are those people with 20 year old cars whose tail lights dont work OR are SO DIM they might as well not be on - AND those people whose lights don't increase brightness when they step on the brakes, hence, no indication that they're slowing down.

Well mine is more then 20 years old but I love my car and would always fix something that's wrong but nothing is in a way of causing an accident.. All my lights work and to an extent of being visible enough day and night. The tinting is really not that dark at all. Can still see the red coming through.

[StevenCJR31]

you have put brighter globes (LEDs?) in ?

[skyln-r33!]

No like I tested them in the dark and day time and they are exactly th same. Only difference is the corner of the blinkers are abit shady looking. I bought new light bubls for my brake lights a month or two ago and I think they were brighter then. Looks like everyone elses rear lights, older cars.
