So I'm planning to smoke out all of my lights (heads, tails, side indicators, front turn signals) and I have a couple of questions. And I'm planning on using the tint film instead of the paint cause I'm scared I might effed it up if I use paint. So...
1. Does a smoked headlights look good on a 6g celi? Cause I've seen many with smoked tails, but not with the heads. If anyone has a pic of their celi with smoked heads, it would be great if you could post it. 2. Switch to LED/SMD bulbs?? At first I thought this would be an obvious choice because with the lights being smoked, the bulbs need to be brighter to be seen thru the smoked layer. But after reading several forums, there are many controversies with using LEDs for tail light. I was just wondering what are your guys opinion on this? If I do get LEDs, I will get colored LEDs (red for stop/parking light, yellow for turning, white for reverse). So hopefully that would help with the brightness? Btw, I'm planning on using these LED bulbs if I do get them. ![]() Or these ![]() |

hey man i'm not to sure if you know about this stuff but what i used is what is called a fly eyes kit the link to the site is Flyeyeskit.co.uk its pretty affordable and its nice because you maintain almost full visibility of your lights you lose maybe 10% id say but it looks great ive had it on my car for about 2 years now and the only downside is it isn't friendly to people trying to peel it. at my college kids were always trying to peel it to see what it was and i would have to say that is the only downside. I didn't know about that. It they look good and pretty easy to install. A little expensive but seem pretty legit. One of the thing I'm worried about when smoking the light is blocking the reflectors. But with the film from your website, it say the reflectors aren't affected so thats pretty interesting. Is that true? superbrightleds.com sells a dual stage LED bulb for the brake lights http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/sto...brake-turn.html yea I checked that site out too, just wished they were a little cheaper haha. I'm a cheapass I know ![]() |
