Cheapest Mod yet...

Bought a roll of 16"x16" Tint from Pep Boys for $2.99. Enough to do both sides. Made my own pattern. Sticks on by static cling...

Right after they pull you over to give you a ticket!

How fast have you gone with those on? I would hate to have to cut a new piece every other week.

Good mod! I'm sure you're smart enough to peel them off before sun-down..

Now I need to find some dark amber tint like that so I can do my driving lights!

Last time I went 125 mph, one flew off and tinted the windshield of the GTO behind me...

I thought I read this kind of overlays wouldn't affect the light output... is it really that much darker to drive with these on at night?

I did my driving lights a while back with limo tint. See Avitar.
Been 120 at least twice since then and haven't lost them. The' ve been thru rain, heat and still don't come off.
