So don't black them out. Just give them a light tint
Any tint over a reverse light is considered illegal. Makes zero sense to tint a reverse light. I don't give a flying **** if you tint yours just do not cry about it when a cop pulls you over on cruise night.

I agree I regret tinting mine. I do think it looks better but with the extra police attention and the shitty lighting when I reverse it's not worth it. however still going ticket free. I think if your driving like a **** on cruise night you will get checked. But so far driving responsibly has netted me no fines.

I would say a very well experienced tuner with HPT's can utalize it better then how Trifecta can. However, There is only a handful of people who i feel can utalize HPT better then Vince can with Trifecta.

Would you want someone who fixes cars for a hobby to fix your vehicle? or someone who is a mechanic as their career?
Well i Kevin has a ton of experience with HPT so consider me lucky i guess

I agree. And i didn't say anything about tinting the reverse lights... My taillights came smoked/DOT approved and thats good enough for me. The only reverse lights i've tinted was Brians. Otherwise the other 5 sets i've done had the reverse lights showing with a light tint on the rest. People tell me what they want and thats how i do them

Damn that sucks! I'm surprised I made it out of Thompson with all my tires. Those roads are the *****! especially this time of year. I thought I wrote off my car in a couple of those dips in the Hwy!
