check out my rear taillights tinted black (RED part only) and also my NEW shoes

looks good.. congrats on the new mods..

The tint looks awesome, very clean and grossy. How did you get it done?

i had to take it to a tint shop i woudnt be able to do it my self to hard , he had to clean the tail lights 1st with alcohol and then he put a clear sheet over the tail lights to trace it around then he sprayed alcohol MIX with water on the tints, then he placed it over the tail lights and start cuting it around with a box cuter

The taillights do look great - they did 'em perfectly.

Any idea on the weight of those wheels?

here some more pic. hope u guys like

Wow, you actually had a film tint put on? Interesting approach, but looks very clean and not as dark as paints normally come out. Nice.

looks great
i'd get black center caps.

Yes, that is a great look with the use of film tint.

Looks good, the only problem is tint is supposed to be installed on the inside of a car, it's not made for outside use...I wonder if it will hold up against the snow/wind/rain? Did you ever check to see which company made the rims or did you just go by what the shop said? They look identical to mine.

Lookin good what kind of wheels are those?

SO, you had a ... tint film placed over the red portions of your lights? It sounds like that is different from what other peoples usually do to 'smoke' their lights. Im guessing other peeps actually paint their lights in some fashion to get it really dark/black? Im a newbie on this whole black lights thing.... could someone break it down for me?

To break it down, you just buy sheets of film like 24x12 of smoke film and cut it to the shape you want and put it on. I tried doing it to a friends car with pre-cut to fit his G35 head lights but it was the wrong size. I recomend just buying the rolls from like stickercity.com and cutting them yourself. Its like 30 a tail light for the film.

I thinking about putting the smoke on my white C320 sedan. If anyone has any thoughts on smoking another color car other than black please share.

watup! sorry i haven't chatted on aim lately, been busy. otherwise your car is turning out great one mod at a time. next mod is to lower the car.

exactly

thats right Coilover are next

nice job on those tails....
i tried to spray mine, but it got screwed up so i wiped it off and ordered from stickercity.com....got a 10 foot roll!.

thats how i did my tail lights, ahem soc lol

but i checked out his car in person, the new rims and the lights make it look hotttt

my bad, advans. Didn't realize. Props to you, then! Very different. How's it holding up? Any fading on them?

congrats on the new mods..

my tints are so ****ty, lol my gf and I did them last year, i gota redo mine, but no fade, the tints are actually "glossy" as compared to spray on paint

well yea advans did give me the idea

If you spray clear coat over the spray on paint (niteshade or whatever) it is glossy.

c230 o5 - any word on the brand name of the rims?
