78' Toyota Celica Liftbacks! If I can find a "Polariod"
I'll scan it and post it. LOL- The thought that I did something like that back then. Like a bad hair-doo that looked cool then, until you look back!

I think that it's a very clean look. But I also agree that it would look best with a black SC (which mine happens to be), and I'm jealous of MidniteSC's car anyway, I love it man! I think there's a significant difference in class between headlight covers (I had them on 3 of my cars in the 90's lol) and smoking tail lights, if it's done tastefully. I would consider that as I need to get some condensation out of one anyway. Onelasttry, what kind of paint would you recommend?

If I were to smoke my taillights, I would either use the nite shades spray tint b/c it's made specifically for things like this OR get it professionally done.
Anyone remember this thread? :

BTW, I'm not smoking my own, I have a pair 95-96 tails on the way that I'm ready to clear
That's by far the best look IMO.
