Thumbs up Newly Tinted Tails




I did 3 layers of Black w/clear coat. up close you can see the red... but the lights are very visible during the day. I may do an additional coat to make it blacked out.

I also got a mt.Fuji sprayed Mat Black. what do you guys think about moving the rear emblem down 3 inches? has anyone done this before?
what do you guys think?
I will remove the everything except the S and the Mt.Fuji

thanks guys


Special Thanks to EnviedG35 for the info,

Brake lights...plenty visible during the day. Hard to pick up all the light on camera though.

I personally prefer the "GTR" style with the circle cutouts over full blacked out on an IP. If it were a OB G, then yea, blacked out would look great. I also would never move the Mt Fuji emblem.

I'm with Freak on this one.
I like the GTR style with the cutouts... especially if you plan on leaving the reverse lights untinted like in the above examples.

Don't touch Mt Fuji.
It doesn't look good once lowered.
Photoshop it first to see what you're end result will be.

What exactly makes your car a GT-S?

I personally am not a big fan of tinted taillights. They look okay IMO.

Whatever GT-S is, he is the only one that has one LOL

I don't like painted/tinted/overlayed tail lights either...but whatever tickles his fancy, it is his car afterall.
