Anyone tint the side mirror turn signal?

hey did any of you guys tint the side mirror turn signals on the tl? if so what tint did you go with light or dark black? and if you have pictures can you post it up, the only ones I found was blacked out fully.

I had AckTL smoke mine when i had my A-Spec kit installed, it looks good especially on a Type S with the other side markers also being smoked from the factory (or for those who modded them or swapped the stock for smoked). I will try to take a picture tomorrow. I dont know what film he used though.

On an unrelated note, Noober, do you have any pics of what your rims look like at speed? It seems the red effect on the one spoke would look cool.

Anyone know where to get pre-cut overlays? Can't seem to find any.

im pretty sure the red would form a kind of circle depending on the speed. if its a slow speed it'll look like the red sticker is only on 1 spoke, and once it goes to a certain speed it'll look like 1 big circle.

all has to do with how many fps your eyes can see vs the rpm of the wheel

A pretty big toad too. It can imagine it whacking me in the face if I got rear-ended.
