Red & Black or Tint???

#1: Red & Black or Tint??? Author: kirsteyjames, Location: rhondda, south wales PostPosted: Wed Nov 16, 2011 7:10 am

Ive removed the rear lexus, clear fog and brake light and put back to standard. I either want to spray the pug badge, tow hooks and brakes red or tint the red lights. Ive seen a few go for the red and black theme so i think im more for the lights being tinted.
What do you think? if anyone could do a photoshop of the rear tinted that would be great Very Happy

Keep the lights as they are or get some Ph2 ones.

Get some phase 2's and leave it, one of the best CC's i've seen and if it aint broke don't fix it.

All the DIY tinted lights I have seen don't really work as lights! I've no idea why people p**s about with lights. They are there as a safety feature and go through lots of tests to make sure they are up to standard. Tinting them makes them less effective and as a result put you and others in greater danger. In heavy rain or fog you might be pretty much invisible until it's too late.

As for tinting fog lights that is just plain stupid. Classy cars don't have painted lights! Tacky cars run on shoe-string budget do.

Im really unsure! I'm not 100% happy with the rear so i have to change something! i was thinking rear morrettes but i dunno. Im going to crack open my lexus lights and spray them, see how they look on the car! Searched tinted rear lights on google and loads of chav cars popped up :/
Maybe ph2 will be better, got those red ones cheap because the scrapyard didnt have ph2 and they are way better than the lexus lmao.

I cant believe i had chrome handles, tailgate and lexus lights on my first 206. What was i thinking Laughing

Rear morettes or spray your Lexus gloss black.

I'm think going to see how the tint goes for now i can always change it back. Someone else posted their black cc with black lexus (sam206cc i think), I'm really not a fan.
Paid a lot of money for a set of lexus lights for my first 206 5 years ago, now i hate them.
I am keeping my eyes peeled for a cheap set of afterburners or maybe black led's but atm ive got a speeding fine to pay and my tax runs out the end of the month Sad

Leave the rear lights as they are except the fog light. I'd get a lexus one and spray it black like you would mask headlights Smile
That way the 2 red lights are connected by the 3rd (the stripe) and you have a fully functional black foglight that will still shine bright red when turned on ?

Basically make it look like this but without the LED's:
