this site makes good headlight and taillight tints

 

watching because ive been looking for a place to custom paint my tyc's

 

I, as a lotta you know, own a custom paint n body shop in Hallandale. Steel Breeze Customs. I do not tint tail lights because of the over all look when done. However I do paint them. When done they look like the factory finish so you have no problem with law enforcement. Claiming they came from the factory that way. The price averages $35.00 each. You can either bring in just the tail lights or leave the car for the day. I open at 10am and if I get them painted by noon, they can usually be installed by the end of the day. Shop phone number is 954 455 0580. I do all kinds of mods and fabrication. As some of you have seen on Ronna's Salsa red Scion XA. (Bullets n Bling). Lemme know if I can be of help. Also I give a 10% discount on all other work to Scion owners. This is already factored into the price of the tail lights.

 

wait so you CAN tint them while there on the car? how long would it take

 

Cool I'm adding you as a contact, in case i need work later on

 

If this was intended for me, then no. As I had stated you can either bring the tail lights in alone, or you can leave the car for the day. They would have to be removed since I am spraying them using acrylic urethane paints. The same pant and finish used on the rest of the vehicle. That's why it leaves a stock type apearance. If you have seen Ronna's tail lights, then you have seen what I do. There are legal issues in darkening tail lights. So if they look factory, you have a chance with the law. I have done some that were almost black and still leave a lotta light coming through. But these have been for local fire and police officers who are not worried about being pulled over. I also Baked n Blackened her haedlights. I put the time restraints in the first post.

 

So if i just left you the car at 10am would i get it back the same night or the next morning

 

Usually late the same day. but whichever is good for you. Blackening headlights takes overnight. for those that need that service. Thanx again for the interest.

ok where exactly are you located, and whats the difference in tinting them compared to painting them

 

thanks i'll look into this, so for 70 i can get mine "mintly" tinted then right? I'm not looking for dark dark dark, i just don't like the 08 tc's bug eye so i want it a bit darker, and since my car is bsp to go with the theme
