    Lens tint test

    Just goofin' around with PS to see what some mods might look like.
    I didn't take much time or worry too much about details.

    Stock front


    Tint on the outside


    Tint on the inside bezel (requires disassembly)


    Tint on both



    Rear stock


    Rear tint overall


    Rear tint - not on Turn/BU

    these mods cost me less than 10 bucks:
    (aftyer paying $650 for the SXT headlights, anyway)



    I sanded, primed and sprayed the eyelids and on the taillights, I just sanded em, oversprayed black and cleared em.
    I speant maybe 15 bucks on supplies and have plenty left over. Thats why I say it cost me less than 10 bucks.

    My experience with spray tint has not been good but this stuff looks completely different.

    I did it on my black 2000 Impala Taillights and it was great. I hated that damn red platstic over the entire back end.

    Why are you guys tinting your heads and tails!?!?! Let them shine with their natural bright brilliance!!! (just my taste I guess)

    In fact, I'm trying to find some altezza style taillights if anyone knows if they are out yet... :twisted:

    I haven't found any tail or head lights for the Magnum yet... I contact APC about it and they said they are talking about doing something for the Magnum but haven't even started it yet.

    Lots of guys on my Grand Prix club have used Nightshade, dulls the finish but can be buffed back to shiney.

    im not sure I know how to link to a thread so do a forum search for "redline" there is a thread called "redline tires on a magnum" or similar started by Blake Alden, page 4 or 5 talks a little about the wheels.
