lights? newbie!

[nikz]

Hey guys, just wondering which set of rear lights I should put onto my mk4? the guy before me had a set of lexus ones and i really NEED to get rid of them. My cars dark grey and was thinking of smoked/tinted standard lights, or maybe smoked L.E.D.s? Not really looking for mk5s as i dont think it would suit the colour of my car.

i have kind of lexus likes on my car, there the LED ones in red, but you can get them in black which are nice. have a search on ebay theres some good ones on there.

On mine i just took the standards off and used that cheap tint spray. horrid stuff if you get it wrong but get it right and itll save oyu 30-40 quid and no1 will really know.

Trick is to spray it on light as possible and build up the tint on it, get yourself some old rear lights fron a scrapyard clean em up and give em a go cheapest option for keeping them dark on the rear.

Tint standard lights or get 16v lights which are tinted anyway. The better option would be to get a black LEDs which i've got but you might wanna tint the glass on them too. They're pretty bright too, blind the bugger behind you

thanks guys, I was looking at a set of smoked lights on ebay and a set of 16v ones. Not quite sure yet, need to sort out some cash as im one of those broke student polo owners Will try and post up pics of the new ones as soon as i get them.

any one tinted the indicators on 16v lights does it pass mot?

Guys, how do I go about tinting my rear lights? Where do I get the spray from and what do I have to do? Thanks!!

[nikz]

i think u can just buy the tinting spray from somewhere like halfords then u need to apply it to the lights, not too dark thought otherwise u mite not pass ur mot!
