#1: Rear light tinting Author: holly, Location: south westPosted: Tue Jul 06, 2010 4:27 pm ---- Hi. Have seen lots of pics of pugs with tinted or smoked back lights. I have seen this savage rear light tint spray on the internet..... could anyone tell me how to use it and is it easy to do?? Is the spray sprayed directly onto the lights or do u have to take them out and spray the inside of them? also is it illegal to have them tinted, i mean obviously you need to be able to see the light thru the spray, so can anyone recommend a number of coars. i just dont wanna go do it and mess it up!!! thanks

you can also look at lamin x have heards its good stuff and that way if you dont like it you can peel it off.

It's the red bit of the rear lights the reflects the light, similar to a bicycles reflectors. It would be illegal to cover these and therefore stopping any light from reflecting off them.

If you look at my photoshoot post you can see my rear lights and the reflector isn't sprayed. It's easy enough to do if you know how to spray
will

Never seen the logic of spray tinting already smoked lights. Don't mask up the reflector seen it too many times looks crap.
Funnily enough I actually saw a 206 which had tint sprayed those same lights today, looked black and s**t tbh maybe he did too many layers.
