Default Re: Tail Light / Head Light Smoked on a Graphite Coupe?

I think that the Graphite coupe will look good with the tinted front head lamps, you could do the fogs but its not necessary really since they are lower and set back from the bumper (not as noticeable). Believe it or not I bought them for my Sapphire coupe to cover up some plastic lense haze that I couldn't get rid of. It looks good! Gives the car a more sinister appearance. I got 38% tints. Unless you HIDs I wouldn't go any darker because it does noticeably dim the lights (and I have sylvania silver stars). The tail lights I didn't do on my car, it was unnecessary for me and would not go with my color. With graphite I bet you could pull it off but I don't know if it would be wise. The reason the headlamp tints go well with the XFire is because the lamps are recessed so that they line up smoothly with the sheet metal (I saw a red coupe with the tints, looked great). The taillights however bulge out slightly and I think wouldn't look quite as stylish. I don't have any pics at the moment of my car with the tints on, sorry!
