Default Tailight Tinting.

Umm yea... I am lookin to do my tailight tints for my 96 accord along with my friend's 01 CL-S. And i was wondering, anyone know a good DIY*do it yourself* page for tailight tints. and where i could get my hand on some tint spray*other than the net*. I checked Advance auto parts and all the small auto shops around my area with no luck. Any help woudl be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
-Rogue

Well, tinting stock tails is cool, but have you considered aftermarket Euro-Altezza style tailights? They're the hot new trend and really set your car apart from the rest visually. I recommend the APC chrome, or if you can afford it, APC carbon fiber altezzas. Good luck, and remember to post lots of pics in Eye Candy!

taillights are so 2000. the cool people take off the lenses and just rock bulbs. but its only cool if you tape them to the chasis. however, if you want to be jdm, zipties add alot of extra flare.

Just shave the tails and use one of those army flashlights that have diff. color lenses (red,blue, green) instead. I was told they are DOT approved.

Don't be dumb by tinting your taillights. It may look cool until some guy rear ends your car at night because he couldn't see your brake lights illuminate through the tint.

listen to what you just said if he were to get altezza tailights, you mind as well tell him that his next car should be a neon with a $30 bolt on shopping cart, and dont forget those hot ass racing decals spread down the car, 1 more thing those kooooool ass neons that pulse to the beat, u are telling the man to buy the ultimate ricer thing for an accord out of all cars let me guess u drive a cavalier right,

ladies and gentlemen i present the ricer award to ZERO

anyway on the subject, dont tint your tail lights just keep them clean and they look a lot better dont get all riced out, keepit moderate and spend money on motor!! i think everyone here will agree with me xcept for ZERO
