    Painted & Tinted Taillights?

    I'm thinking about getting my Taillights Painted & Tinted (Medium Tint, I think) through Avon Custom Wheel in a few days. I made a photoshop of my Charger to reflect how it would look. Please vote on the poll with your opinion on Tinted/Painted vs Stock. Please post comments, too!

    - STOCK -



    - PAINTED AND TINTED -


    Please be honest!

    Don't like. Stock tails blend better with car color. Dark tails are nice with darker colors like blue and black.

    Just my opinion.

    I like it, but personally i would go darker on the tint in the bottom (white) part of the tail light, or paint the framing around that area Orange to match the rest of the "reflective" area of the lights.

    But that's just me...

    I like the extra Orange trim and tinted lenses.

    I vote for tinted.

    You can look at just half of either side to see what the rest would look like.

    The tails are right next to dark, the flat black. Is there anyways to make the tint flat? Or do a light thin layer or flat black?

    I'd go with the painted and tinted. Too bad you couldn't get the LED taillights with black inside (like the headlights) and paint (& tint) those. It'd blend in nice with the black accents.

    IMO, I think the paint looks good, but the tint I dont like.
    What if you do the paint and tint the taillight except for the clear parts in flat black to match.
    Im a practical joker, so dont take anything seriously. GOT IT. GOOD.
