horney 0 Posted September 5, 2008 I think you have to make your own with film or chav spray. Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTartanJudge 0 Posted September 5, 2008 Or you can buy the FK crystal smoked ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ADZ_VR6 0 Posted September 5, 2008 I used the chav spray, use wet and dry to take the shine and smoth the top half of the light, wash them mask them off and then give them a few coats of chav spray. got my mate to lacquer and buff the hole light i think they look good. :clap: Tried the overlays wasn't right impressed looked tatty at corners http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc23 ... 0010-1.jpg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terencem215 0 Posted September 5, 2008 Cheers Adz, looks really good, Ive got a white 'rado. Do you think it will look good?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ADZ_VR6 0 Posted September 5, 2008 Got to look better than orange. just take 1 out and spray it, it will wipe of with white spirits. If your anywhere close put mine in and see what they look like, chances are u wont be tho Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terencem215 0 Posted September 6, 2008 No, looks like your in yorkshire, Im down south in kent. But its ok, im just gonna risk it, i dont like any of the other lights i see. The crystal lights just look to much like lexus lights. But the all red lights are just to much, need a bit of contrast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vr6-phil 0 Posted September 18, 2008 @ BigTartanJudge & M15 VW I have tinted my rears and look a smiliar tint level to yours (see below). Do you not find that the light is blocked a little too much for the indicators and reverse lights? I have tried the LED bulbs without any luck. I am still hunting for a satisfactory solution! Any suggestions? (sorry for slight thread hi-jack!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTartanJudge 0 Posted September 18, 2008 The lights pictured in my pics were on my last corrado G60. However, I didn't find they reduced light output THAT much, obviously not as bright as standard ones, but they passed MOT with no problems and never got stopped my poilice or had complaints from anyone who thought they were not bright enough. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
