    duude, way to dark IMO. I am more of a fan of the lighter tint and actually i think the 00-01 tails look the cleanest. I actually just ordered preface tails for my 97 this morning, im so excited cant wait to get those ugly tails gone. $130 shipped brand new.

    like the rims but not so much the tails, but hey thats just my opinion and you may verywell like them!

    like someone said, i like having the contrast of the stock ones but its being different that counts

    Tails dont look that bad, i think you could have done a slightly better job making the coats lil more even.

    Its called stock buddy. Precisely 1.78" IIRC. I don't really understand why highschoolers feel the need to black out everything. LOL.

    If you think you will be better financially AFTER highschool think again. J-O-B in highschool is great. No bills to pay so you can dump it all into your car ;]

    I think tinted tails look like shit IMO,

    I like the clean look of a stock tail light, just doing stuff like Clear Corners and tint is enough, nice pair of wheels. But when people do stuff like that...Just reminds me of a civic.

    no that is perfect because they are still obviously red, plus your car is black so it flows

    i love your car, no thats the perfect shade. and the color of your rims is aaamazing, what color is it?

    i also have to say that i think tinted tails looks a bit better on a lighter color car like silver, but thats just me ::SHRUGS::

    Re: blacked out tails

    Yea, I don't mind tinted tails....i just think people over-indulge sometimes....gotta go easy with it, or it'll kill visibility and just look bad (remember, that white light is there so you can SEE when ur backing up....pretty important, imo)

    the wheel color is Duplicolor bronze

    Re: blacked out tails

    jumboblack nice job but personally, i could stand to go a little darker. they look very good though. i was thinking of also taping off the reverse lights after seeing a blacked out b6. imo the best combination would be a Ti package (i know not b5), silver sedan or avant with ~15% tint and blacked headlights, tails, and roof.

    Re: blacked out tails

    These were my back lights that I smoked myself with a tinting spray.



    After a couple of months I decided I preffered them standard. Which was a bit of a bugger as it meant 4 hours on my mums front lawn with nail varnish remover.

    How long ago did you tint yours? Just wondering cause I always have to redo mine due to fading. I'll get them to look just like yours and then two months later it looks like they were never tinted. I think I'll try nightshades the next time I do them. Also did you put any clear or anything over them? Thanx
