    Default Tinted Taillights

    I'm thinking about Tinting my Taillights. Just wondering if you guys know they will last? because they are tinted on the outside (unlike windows which is in the inside) so i figure they will peel off or rip from extreme temperatures (winter/summer)...

    what do you guys think?

    Also, does anyone know where i can get them locally? If so, how much? eBay has them but i prefer to buy something locally.

    Welcome to the 21st Century. Tinted tail lights were from, what, the 80s?

    To each there own.

    Why are they tinted from the outside? Isn't the outer tail light shell separate, I remember someone telling me they've used window tint on the inside.
    Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
