white4d96 Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 (edited) Okay, a couple months ago I went on a niteshade frenzy and tinted damn near everything on my car: tails, light bar, reflectors, corner lights, blinkers, and...my fog bar. If you're not familiar with '88-'96 Grand Prixs, the sedans have a lamp bar between the headlights with 3 running lights in the middle and 880-series foglights on the ends. I tinted that to break up the monotonous look the car gets in the front; I didn't like that from one corner to the other looked like a giant strip of lights. NOW! the tint has kinda blued a bit and a lot of it has rubbed off, so lately I have been debating what to do with it. I am debating between either cleaning it up and re-blacking it out, then clearing over it, or blasting all the tint off of it and just going back to a clear bar. I can't decide, so I'm opening this poll for you guys to decide: to tint, or to de-tint? TINTED: CLEAR: Edited July 7, 2010 by ktownsdriftking Quote Too many projects, too little time...

white4d96 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Fixed the poll and added another option: what if I were to leave the lens clear, but black out the reflectors inside? Quote Too many projects, too little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

white4d96 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 (edited) I've thought about it, but I'm not sure if I want to or not. I think if I do that I want to just black out the reflectors like I said. I saw a thread on another forum where a guy did that to a Ram and it looks pretty killer. Minus the eyebrows of course, but I was thinking it might be an idea. Either way if I'm going to do that I want to wait until I can get some 55w HID's and a different type of tint because this niteshades crap is, well, crap. EDIT: because the thread was apparently members-only? Edited July 8, 2010 by ktownsdriftking Quote Too many projects, too little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white4d96 Posted July 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Kabump. I reread the thread about the Ram and he did NOT black-out the reflector bowls, said they did that with an '04 Prix's lights and they sucked big ones =/ I guess I'll just go to Napa and see if they'll mix me up some 'black clear' and put it in a can, if they still do that.
