I have been contemplating these two mods lately, and I only want to do one I think. So what should it be, paint the taillight bezels black, or smoke the taillights to 5%?

My car is white. I have a black top, as well as black wheels, black bumper inserts, and bottom of rear bumper is painted black.

So what do ya think?

I went the painted route (along with a few other things) and it's not too bad.

Black bezels.

I've always had a thing for them.


Tilted taillights look good too, but i've never did it to mine due to the surrounding legal ramifications if i were to be in an accident with them

not a fan of black bezels, looks like they came off another car and were never painted, but tinted lights....

I have a pair of tinted taillights that were painted by Tubro92pgt on here and he is a professional body guy/ painter. They look REALLY good, but i would rather have a pair of stock ones. So if anyone wants to trade..... Iam down... just pay the 15bucks for shipping and there yours...
