I'd say try not to use any spray on tint. But some translucent vinyl instead...

My Hatch had blacked out lights on it when I got it. I will either be trading them for stockers, or sanding the tint off. Ill trade them for stock if anybody wants them.

Got any closer pictures? I'll trade you if they're in good shape and they did a decent job.

VHT Nightshades on the hatch. (When they were actually clean) DMAX smoked on the coupe.

Light comes through just fine.

just something different...

i got these origin lab (d-max) lights cause the smoked 2 layer lights were out of stock at the time



well one cover was cracked at an event so i peeled the covers off and painted the housings and painted (with red stained glass spray paint) the clear inside lens and here....



i just thought too many people had stock, or night shaded stock, or kouki, or the regular aftermarket ones, so i wanted to do something different.
