Shady 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 Spray tint. But not legal, but if you spray it nice & thin so its not too dark you should be fine for WOFs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 you can do it on the inside and they will pass you as long as you can see light from 100m away (iirc on the distance, may be 200m) from experience with Captain Anal at VTNZ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e30ftw 410 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 Your actually not allowed to apply any sort of paint to taillights at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Linden 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 Yup its illegal, ive got mine done and been pulled over many a time with no hassels, Its called VHT tint spray or nightshades from repco its about $30 and spray lots of very thin even coats. I did mine like that and they're almost black but when the lights come on they're just as bright as normal if not clearer because of the contrast with the black Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shady 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 My old lights I used that spray tint. Made them black as (looked light as, but then once it dryed...ooops) but yes of course, once you light them up you will see them, but you need a reflection when lights hit them which they do not.

Linden 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 mine reflect still not as well as they should admittedly (if a cops on your ass they light up so good enough for me!), i let each coat dry a lil and done about 10 very thin coats, you probably just did a few really thick ones..
