Headlight Tinting

[towelsnap]

Well, I know for sure your vision would definitely be brutal if you have it done. But what do you guys think? Do you think it looks good? (lol no this isn't my car). lol Still even if you had HID's I think your vision at night would be crap!

Also, quick question if you debadge the back badges (Mazda 3) and the symbol does anyone know if there any pins in them? Or will they come clean off like a Toyota Matrix?

Yah I wouldn't do the tint... It looks good in day, but HIDs wouldn't be as bright or as far.

The mazda on the back has two pins, and learning from a member the 3 is just an adhesive backing.

Isn't that also illegal?

Yup.

Mods that make the car more dangerous or illegal with absolutely no benefit are stupid.

Majic has thrown up twice already this morning...tinted tail lights now this...

[Wild Weasel]

I dunno... on the right car I've found that tinting the lights can look really nice.

Way back in the day I had smoked headlight covers on my Z24. I liked how they looked, but took them off at night. Then one day they were stolen and I never replaced them. :)

The problem with tinting them is that you can't take them off at night. Pretty stupid.

just couldn't control my gag reflex ;)

i guess aside from it 'looking cool' it's useless as it blocks the visible light be it headlights or taillights..

ive known some people who have smoked their headlights and while it looks stealthy on some black cars, it can draw negative attention to yourself and ups the chances of tickets
condensation is also a minor problem

Light smoke should be fine, but if like the one of the picture above then u will have a free coffee and donut at the station......

One of those mods that will contribute to being a cop magnet.

+1

Exactly what I was thinking.

I saw a guy today in a honda who tinted half his headlights, so his main lights were open, but his turn signals were tinted. It actually didnt look bad on a black car, but I wouldn't do it.

I smell something with this mod...
