Side Marker Tint Blackout Opinions
 
Looking at ordering blackout side marker tint... deciding if i wanna just do front and rear side markers, or add the trunk marker as well.... opinions?

Grandpa 10-31-2013 04:22 PM

I did BigWorm's full kit. Headlights, tail lights, side markers front and rear and the trunk. I don't have a current pic of I don't think, but if you come out to the Friday night meet or Sunday cruise/photoshoot you check out what it looks like on the Sterling Grey.

How much did he charge for the full kit? I'm only looking at trunkm, and sides.. dont have grille fogs and don't really feel the need to blackout the headlights/taillights!

Grandpa 10-31-2013 04:33 PM

It's cheap. I did everything and it was around $100 bucks. I think for you want to do it's much cheaper. I installed it myself, but if you want to drive out there they will install it for you.

Just called them, planning on going tomorrow for tail light centers, 3rd brake, side, rear reflectors, and tinting my v6 fogs blue. opinions? thank you for showing me this vendor!

Don't put tint on the projector lens of your fog lights. Get a set of 5K HIDs if you want that look.

Leave the kid alone and let him do as he wants. I'm sure he's thinking its a temp thing until he can afford some real HID's. Keep in mind his age, he probably barely has enough money for gas, Taco Bell and date night. lol

Literally why i'm looking at tint, $600 a month car payment and Discount Tire is cutting hours due to winter... wanting to give it a little change up and blue is my favorite color. I plan on doing HIDs once i have the funds until then i want a idea of what it'd look like! Thanks for understanding haha

Thats what i want to do, but having family financial problems due to hospitalization recently and this is a cheap "mod"/change up to give me a idea to see if i'd like it or not for the future! Thanks for the input on it though, appreciate it! :)

Don't mind Dirty D. He's an angry lil midget who is an insufferable know it all internet mechanic and professional xbox race car driver who's P whipped like a freshman with his first piece who only drives his car to the puppy park. :flamingdevil:

Not to mention if it is too blue it's illegal...

Agreed. 5000K in the projectors should still be reasonable. 6000k is starting to get blue. Smaller housings tend to make the color a little more blue than a larger housing (headlight).

The glass is already so concave, I don't know how the light will react with the vinyl. It may refract a lot, maybe not at all. I guess it's worth it. But David may have a hard time getting something cut so small on that curved of a surface.

Ahh okay i got what y'all are saying. I guess if i get the opportunity to go tomorrow we will find out, thanks for the heads up about the legal situation.
