Blacklines question

I've noticed when I unlock my car the rear lights come on and it looks rather cool - the red lights at the back have a kind of electric fire element thing going on in them with 3 lines on each side..... really like the look of it.

Will that go with blacklines as I think it is part of the light that gets replaced?

Hopefully it is clear what I'm talking about...I may take some pics later as it looks really mean when it does it....

In a way. But rather than tinting the tail lights, the black line has blacked out housing so the brightness of the bulb is not effected in anyway.

Hey guys feel free to turn it into a blacklines post and not answer the question

Actually I think remmib answered it in post #5 above - the 3 horizontal red lines at the top of the red lights is what I was concerned with. Looks like they are still there so that's cool!

To answer your question, yes you get the same 3 horizontal lines with the blacklines
Blacklines should be your first mod
