if you or any one else still has this mod do the turn signal still show through?

Also is that a film or a spray... because I would like to do this mod but would like to use the tint film rather then spray.....

Don't mean to thread jack but here are my tails with tint over them. Could have gone a shade darker but this works fine for me. At night they look completely black.

Not sure if there is a right up on this for putting film but there should be one for painting the tails.

Yes he did and he did a great job If anyone needs info on how to put film on the tails just send him a message and I'm sure he would be more than glad to give some advice.

good thing you're finally going for a change, I don't think you should completely remove the blacked out look, but turn it down a notch so the police won't notice you too much, like how rykwebb's set up is
