Tint, Debadge and Tailight Tint

[Joe Caughel]

SHO'ers,

Just got this done a month or so ago. Turned out amazing. Straightline Paint and Body in Port Huron, Michigan killed it!

Beautiful! Would love to tint my MKS taillights about half the darkness you did.

Looks fantastic!

What percentage tint is on the taillights?

What percentage tint is on the taillights?

It's not actually a percentage tint. The guys I went to actually take them off and its a clear coat smoke they spray on them.

Both look exactly like what I'm wanting to do to mine. JC is you tails sprayed also? Any trouble with law enforcement? I'm in Illinois also and want to tint tails and windows but don't want to get pulled over all the time. Also looks like your Windows are darker than 35%. Any trouble with that?

Yes, I had them professionally done with candy paint. I haven't had any issues with this car (knock on wood) but got hassled in my old tbss which were done just like this. My front windshield is 55%, front rolldowns are 20%, and the rest are 5%. I absolutely love how dark they are and haven't been harassed so far.

BRILLIANT! Now you need 4 NEW crockpots to set off all the hard work!

Any you have a white decal in the center back! What's exhaust is that! Also, if your initials are JC so are mine. Freaky.

Yeah, it's an Unleashed tuning sticker. The exhaust consists of Unleashed catless downpipes, stock mid section, Vibrant resonators, with 4" rolled straight cut tips. That's pretty wild because that is my initials..lol.. Might as well lower yours next to complete the look!

That is crazy! Identical cars with the same initials.. weird. Anyway, how does lowering it affect the ride of the vehicle? I drive about 40 miles round trip for work a day.

It's not as good as stock but totally worth doing looks alone plus increased traction. The ride is a tad more firm but rides similar to stock on a smooth road

Awesome, thanks!

Looks great! I would recommend lighting the tint on your tail light some insurance companies will not cover you if your hit because they could not see your lights. But it truly looks great!
