I say go for it. Are you talking about the tinting spray? If so, here's a pic of mine. This is of course a 95 bumper...

you do this on the OUTSIDE of the taillights right? you dont open them up and do it on the inside right? Also.. has anyone ever gotten tickets with them? I'd do it in a heart beat because it looks tight.. but i dont feel like getting more tickets.. i have enough tickets as it is. thanks

i was gonna go to a hobby store today to look for it, because it ends up costing like $20 after shipping and all if i buy it online. So am i gonna get denied too?

how the hell is it 20 bucks after shipping? 12 bucks to ship somethin that weighs a pound at the most is a little extreme.

well i was a dumbass and couldn't find it on that website you posted, but i looked at a few others and it was atleast $20 after shipping. I don't understand either. How much is it on the site you posted after shipping? I searched for a while and i couldn't find it on there, maybe i'm just retarded :)

id like to know that too. i really want to tint my tails soon but im not sure if you are supposed to tint the outside of the lights or the inside. you probably have to take them off to do it regardless tho right?
