Tinted tail lights
Hey all, I was wondering. I want to tint the rear tail lights on my CLS, I was wondering if anyone knew a place in Miami, Fl that will do it.. Also is it a tint over the tail light? Or how is it done??

Thanks.

Damn those little C55's look so phat from the back! So do the C55's carve up the twisties M3 style or what? I find the E a bit heavy!
