I don't care for tinted tails but if you do go ahead and do it get it done with film. The flat from the spray tint never looks good.


It's not a spray and done process. If it looks flat you fucked up.



Tinted tails on a red car with black wheels looks good when its done right. Just enough to make them look candy apple red instead of bright red. They should NOT look black.

I think you should, I actually really like your car, I love the flat black wheels, and as f9r the side markers, im about to do that to mine, the taillights on the 2014 mustang are already black, but I was thinking about doing the headlights, but I do a lot of driving at night, so dont think I will

So decided to attempt to black out my side markers today to see what it would look like. The end result was much much better than anticipated.

Leading me to the question, should I try and do my tail lights?
Or is the smoked taillights too teenagerish? I can't find any pics of liquid red g8s with stock smoked tail lights online  to even get an idea. Only ones with the smoked spyder leds

what are your thoughts?

(if images are huge I'm sorry, uploaded off my phone)
