tinted all my lights this weekend with vinyl

It looks black at night.

I would 100% recommend using this instead of nightshades since you can just peel it off if you need to. It was my first time and surprisingly hard to do.. but I might up end up reapplying most of it again this summer since I had to overstretch a view spots.

regular reverse light vs. tinted

A little bit more than nightshades though. about $40 worth of material to do all the lights

I did the headlights, tail lights, and reverse lights with about 60"x24" worth of tint

RVinyl told me double sided tape wouldn't work well with the vinyl but I put my eyelids on anyway, perfect!

custom splitter and lower springs on the way as well. Can't wait to slam this thing :)

On a side note.. the tint on the headlights reduces the output to about 66%. You NEED HIDs :)

Come to Missouri and you will think twice about having your car as low as it is:laugh:.
I need to clean up my SVT and get some pictures of everything I've done to it since i got it. Its pretty under the hood now:drool:. (more than what it was anyway..)

Your DOT is going to come after you with a bill for scrapping all their roads and destroying markers!! You should put a solid underside on it so you can just scrape around town. And have a better jacking point!
And pics of redonkulous lowering?
 
LOL They don't give two craps. Well, actually, they do. Besides, the road is kinda crappy. They need to repave it since they repaved all the other main highways. I would like to put a skid plate under the car, actually.

And all I'll PM you the pic, since this is for black SVTs LOL

Oh yeah it is for black SVT's! Get outa here T-raider. (it was funny in my head)
MO is working on all major highways and roads recently. Made it really hard to keep a clean black car:nonono:..
 
And on top of that, I live on the main road, so I cant park on the street. The road curve at like 20°, my driveway slopes at 40°, and the only other way into my place is a gravel driveway going to my neighbors house, which has a 2 foot wide pothole that I have to navigate around, then a 3 inch transition to pavement that I also have to deal with. So no lowering for me for the forseeable future.
 
no excuses....my roads here are like Michigan roads! Old, potholes everywhere, uneven, grooved, you name it.... !!
