ok first of all theres no pics in this thread so i dont know what pics ur reffering to... as for the tinting... what color is ur car? if ur gonna tint them smoke black.. it'll look better on a darker car. if ur gonna tint them red then it would probably look better on a lighter car.

What pictures are you talking about?

As far as smoking the tail lights, it has been done by a member here. I forgot his name but it looks pretty good. Maybe someone can post that pic if available.

IMO, just get the 02 tails if you don't have it already. It makes a world of difference.

He painted them. He disassembled the headlight and painted the silver piece black. This is what the A-Spec TL is gonna have when it's released in Canada. Might want to wait till them and buy them already done. They're gonna be expensive though, my guess around $175 a light.

Can someone tell me again why this car isn't coming to America? I'm pretty sure it is the same engine, so it can't be an emissions thing. That thing is butter, and I think they would sell tons of them here. Any???

i have an extra set of cleared lights that i have open. the chrome is actually 3 pieces. theres the piece that he painted and then behind there a chrome piece for the low beam and high beam. they come apart when u open the headlights. if u do it, u'll understand. what im gonna do is a little bit different than what he did... he painted that whole piece black, even the turning lens section.. what im doing is gonna look exactly like the a-spec headlights. i'll post before and after pics.
