Pic request - 172/182, Smoked Rear Lights

[DevilDamo]

As above please

 

[nth]

rare on here. . .only seen one on a black 182
il try get it

 

[Hazza]

Damo, don't do it.

Won't look the greatest imo.

The only smoked ones i've seen are the smoked lexus lights, or the DIY jobby which look crap.

not the pic i had in mind or a 1*2 but you get the idea

[DevilDamo]

I was after some rear lights like the ones I used to have on the VTS...

 

[Fletcher]

Not a fan of smoked rear lights tbh.

 

[DevilDamo]

That wasn't the question

 

[Marky_]

Only on black cars.

 

[Middo]

had them tinted on my old car, but kept the centre circle clear which was quite nice as it got rid of the harshness of the red.

 

[Geddes]

it does look better on the 182 than the other 2 imo

 

[Merk]

The exhaust on the first car could be bigger.

 

[B5 BDJ]

not a fan tbh

 

[cat171]

Me neither.

 

[Tigger]

My old motor, not a 1*2 but you get the idea

 

[cat171]

[Tigger]

if the lights had of been completly smoked an the wee silver metal bit round the petrol cap takin off an had the windows tinted that wud of been a nice car. love the exhaust tho

I dont see anything wrong with them on black cars as it runs with the rest of the car. Heres one of mine from last year.

 

[crash-0714]

Only on black cars.

Please tell me no-one on here bought that, because the owners of that garage are dead dodgy....

 

[crash-0714]

Oh and I'll see if I can get hold of a pic of the fathers 1.2, not a 172 but has smoked rears on, and looks pretty tidy if im completely truthful....

 

[G_2500]

heres mine

 

[G_2500]

few more...

 

[G_2500]

they were heat treated... taken them off now put the origional ones back on... might sell the tinted ones... thinking of getting some clear ones instead somethin like these maybe ... not sure yet http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/6969/dsc00104fi9.jpg

 

[glyn1980]

heres mine

What bulbs do you have??

I have tinted rears, but my lights do not look as bright as those. I went for LED rear bulbs which were brighter than standard.

Here are my rear lights

 

[G_2500]

standard

 

[G_2500]

heat treated... makes a big diff

 

[G_2500]

You should be able to see the diff

 

[G_2500]

think if i had polished them up with a detailing machine they would have looked perfect...

 

[DevilDamo]

Wooow. Surprised to see this thread bumped back up.

After looking at the pics, I think I'll be keeping the standard ones on

 

[Reyes]

Your car looks better with that tint on, people saying it looks worse dnt listen to them

 

[mossyv6]

Wow 7 year bump and still a no point/chav topic.

 

[Bozmeister]

My old motor, not a 1*2 but you get the idea :smile:

Don't worry, I'm sure we all went throught that phase, I used to have a Astra which was chavved up to s**t!

 

[Carguy]

[Carguy]
