  • One question that i have.

    In my pride my tail lights are diferent from an other.
    The one tail light is red(red) and the other is red(white) because of sun i think.
    What can i do now? I went in my local car parts shop but they don't have tail light to buy. If i make them black both will be the same color when i press the brake?? Need the cheapest recomendation please...

      About the same darkness eh? I see in your photo albums your car has tinted lights. Have you ever been stoped by cops for your tail lights? How many coats you done? 4-5?

      Thanks dude realy

              It may be better to compare the police and how strict they are in Greece vs. the U.S.

              In the U.S., we also have many different jurisdictions (areas) with different police departments and sometimes, different laws.

              Find a good source for Greek law and see what it says about how dark your lights may be.

              Good luck! Post pictures when you can! I think you are our first Greek member!

                          if you didn't want to black tint them you could always redo the red so that they matched.

                            Redo the red? That will be perfect! But some say that the red will fade very easy. Do you have any sugestion about red spray that will be good?

                              I personally have not done it but I think that I have seen where people have used Candy style paint to get a desired affect. Those type of colors are see through and darken with layers I believe. You could make both look the same is that is the case by spraying both, but one more then the other.
