Head/Tail Light Tinting

rarwz · 08-22-2011, 07:56 PM

I know a bunch of guys on the boards have their heads/tails tinted, but I wanted to see if anyone has tried the GTS covers (The Z Store!

I have heard before that head/tail tinting may be illegal, anyone have hard facts on that? Was thinking this may be a safer/less permanent solution for a daily driver. Someone at some point also mentioned that tinting the headlights can cause excessive heat buildup and ruin the bulbs. Anyone have any insight?

I just painted mine. Bleeds light perfectly and cops dont bother me, I do turn on my lights in the day time if they get behind me though lol. If you decide to tint them buy the film from bluebatmobile, he has pre cut film that holds up awesome.
