sprays work shitty, and regular window tint wont work either, u need a special tint (its thicker, more durable); its not expensive either to get someone to do it, which is what i recommend doing, try Mr. Detail in shawnessy- they do good work :thumbsup:

Your crazy to tint your tails man!!!
Tinting tails are for VW!!!
Altezzas are for Hondas!!

Ok now with that cleared, I invest in a compu-star alarm first! Or save up for some nice wheels

well it doesnt look horrible, i like it but dont tint over the reverse signals (try another shop-chop), that might look better, and jdmakkrod is right, be prepared to pay for a few measly tickets :tongue:

Not only the chance of tickets with tinted tails, but the chance of getting screwed if you are rearended and the other driver claims he couldn't see your tailights.:(

Yeah, don't do the tint, not only is it illegal, it is somewhat outdated and it looks way too 'Darth'.
