Smoked Taillights on white w204

I like the brabus at the bottom of this my mb online thread... how they smoked the tail lights on the outsides, looks clean...

http://www.mymbonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6279

shows you how other threads are much more advanced than the basic topics discussed here... hope these types of threads eventually show up at mbworld

I like that site.

I think tinted tails would look sick like that especially on a lighter color car.

They aren't tinted, its actually a trim kit piece that is applied to the rear tailights. Its very similar to the MB Chrome piece.

That s looking nice in the brabus version but there is a thin line that we must be carefull.
Or you keep the sporty-elegant style the car has from the factory with some little extra,
or you change the style to just sport but then you have to change a lot of parts so the car will look compact.Like spoiler,front ,rear fenders,rims,exhaust pipes,e.tc.
But both ways the car is looking fanatastic i am loving it more day by day.

Really, I thought it was tinted?

Someone should buy the chrome trims and paint them black. I don't think it will look as good as the above picture though.

I see some black around the turn signals too... so I think it's more than just the chrome trim that you can get now. If you look at the second Brabus Bullit picture on the myMBonline posting, it looks smoked.
