How do you think this looks?

I did a little photoshop work to see what my car would look like with some tint on the headlights and add some smoked foglights. What do you think?
I promise i do better PS work than this, but i was using my laptop mouse instead of the tablet!


OR THIS?

I like the lights, but the tints look pretty cool if your going for that blacked out look. I'll stick to eyelids, thats too much black for me lol

ok for looks if you like the whole stealth thing, don't forget the T symbol, what about the rear?

Functionally it would be kind of dangerous.

I'm all for the tinted headlights/tail lights, but I think it's just too dark that it will render the headlights useless. Maybe a lighter film?

if you like it then go for it.

why do people always ask what other people think? doesnt seem like a self-expression question... if you do something do it because you like it!

haha garcia- i can see what you mean. I like to get other people's ideas on stuff because if everyone says "maybe a lighter tint" i could consider it, and have it look better than reminding people of a blind person. besides, if you can't bounce ideas around in a forum... then why even bother joining in the first place?

but if you like dark and 100 people like it lighter, you will then go lighter ?? you are not fab'ing a a-w intercooler (where you might kick around some ideas, etc), you are adding film to a piece of plastic. is there a theme to the car? go with what you like, not what others think.

i'm not sure i 100% like the tint. I haven't made up my mind. Keep in mind guys- i'm a chick lol I just happen to be a chick that likes cars, so it's the equivalent to your girlfriend saying "should i wear the blue dress tonight, or the black one?"

Im always saying the same think TACO_KID is saying as far as go with what you like.

Anyways, a chick that likes cars, and can photoshop? Didn't know there was such a thing! Where can I sign up for that at?

Anyways, I tinted my taillights by using Clearcoat, and black mixing tint. It leaves them real glossy. If you didn't use as much mixing black it would just barely smoke them and leave them with functionality. Any decent body shop can do this for you, and it should be really cheap.



Tinted Taillights... The Right Way is the thread on the tail lights!

haha, well us photoshopping car liking chicks are a different breed for sure lol I like what you've done with the spray tint and clearcoat. It looks really nice! Part of me wants for it to look subtle, but just enough that people can tell it's different, but the other part of me also likes the drastic look of the darker tint too. Thanks for the pic I just haven't made up my mind :/ lol i know, what a shocker, right?

A chick that hasn't made up her mind... And just when I thought she wasn't like the rest of 'em! J/K & thanks for the compliment.
