Need Some Advice On Smoked Out Tail Lights

AriG1102 · 09-20-2010, 08:32 PM

I have an appointment with tint world in 2 days and I just wanted some advice on what percent tint should I get for my tail lights. Feel free to throw in some pictures (BTW MY CAR IS A 2010 BLACK 328I COUPE). So if you do put in some photos please make sure that it is a black e92 and also throw in the tint percentage. Also I am only tinting the red part, so the white will remain un-tinted. Thanks.

Smoked rear lights are a hazard. Can't see then in snowy, or rainy conditions. Most tinting ginos don't realize that

i would just tint the white turn signals of the tails in 35%. On a black e92, tinting the tails looks kinda cheap imo. If you are doing all of the red, I would at least go for a lighter smoke (like 35%)

IDK man IMO I think the light smoke looks kind of ugly and is a waste of money I have been looking at a lot of photos in the past couple of days and from what I have seen the completely blacked out look with the white turn signal un-tinted looks the sickest especially when turned on IMO, but if you could find some photos that look cool with what you have said post them up so maybe I can see what you mean. Thanks appreciate the advice
