I got pulled over this morning for having my Tail lights tinted, Just a fix it ticket and I am glad I didn't use the paint to smoke them out Sucks though i was just going to tint my windows and do a MD but maybe I'll just wait LOL...

 

Damn, I got pulled over for speeding and the trooper only said "Also, your taillights are illegal. Have a nice day."

 

Yeah I was upset because I really don't like how the tail lights look on the sedan lol
It was actually a Highway Patrol pulled me over in town. He was driving the opposite direction busted a U turn and got me lol my lights only had a 20% tint..

 

i did not know that. glad i haven't done anything like that to my car yet

 

If you do them correctly, by following your states laws, they are fine.

Most states require that the light that shines still has to be red. This is what a lot of people do wrong, by tinting them poorly, they reduce the light from red to brown.

 

yeah thats pretty dark. however light shades and filmed tint are a lot darker then base in the claer which allows a lot of light ommitence. ive yet to have someone get pulled over.

my best advice is look into your state laws. most arent completely illegal. most just say they have to be seen from a certain distants and have to shine red.

 

Sucks 2 be in Cali. Their firearm laws are strict 2.

 

id probably make a bet that you pass the wrong cop in any state you will get a ticket.

ive had "illegal" tail light tint on every car ive ever had, but ive never been "civic" stupid, and done it so dark so you cant see your running lights. so thats probably why i dont have an issue.

 

lol here in Ontario you can spray paint you windows and tail lights black and I dont think you'd get bothered lmao!

 

This is how dark i had them. I didn't think they were to dark but i guess the Cop did .

HAHA CALI sucks! nah rly sorry guys. in IL i was told by a cop you gotta be able to see the light from the tails from >500 ft away.

You should be good, you got Washington Plates. BTW your Balt looks Sexy!!

 

[QUOTE=RobSSsedan;6452166]Whaddya talkin about? Out-of-state plates are a goldmine for CA cops. They'll ticket you for anything, since you'll never come to court and end up just paying it (and CA is soooo broke, it's stoopid).

 

true story!

 

Ive tinted so many sets for people out here and ive never had a someone get pulled over

 

I'm pretty sure you did mine. Don't think I'll get pulled over for it. *knocks wood*

 

[QUOTE=brainchasm;6452180]Yeah true CA is broke, But he should be good with passing through here with Windows tinted and tail lights since he don't live out here and his state probably allows tinted windows.

 

ya haha i got pulled over in Utah for them cop just looked at my **** and let me go.

and thanks

 

The cops use that as an excuse to stop you, they already know most of the time they cannot give you a ticket, but they want to find someone without a license or no insurance or maybe something bigger.

 

No such thing as a monthly quota for cops.



These were mine:



6-7 coats of nightshades and 3 coats of clear coat... whaddup
