got bored so i tinted my DD's tail lights and sidemarkers

i messed up on the reverse light tail lights so im gonna order a new set since i dont have the Patience to re sand down the lights for the 3rd time and redo all the coats as well as the clear and i learned i need to leave the reverse lights alone and just tint the red around them lol. but all and all i think it looks great!

first pics of my DD

Not really, tinting looks tacky and too dark. If you were to add say, Afterburner lights to the Cobalt or Camaro, then THAT would look better for sure. The "blackout" theme is really overplayed and overated but that is just one man's opinion. I give you credit for owning a Cobalt AND a Camaro!!
