black out taillight covers
 
does any one drive around with these on? i know some places its illegal and just for show but i was wondering if any one drives with them on and catches any crap for it from the fuzz. i bought a pair and just put them on tonight so itll be interesting to see how they deal with it over here (germany)

I've had them on for years and no police officer has ever mentioned it. If they do, I'll just say they're covers and offer to take them off.

Lol Germany have different law u should check first

Switch 03-19-2009 05:37 PM

Haha, didn't even notice he lives in germany.

Not sure about Germany, but Florida doesn't give a shit. Have had mine tinted for almost 3 years.

Stanger00 lives in Germany and he was tinting his. So I'm sure you'll be fine.

I spray tinted mine and I haven't been pulled over at all and they are really dark. Cops are all over St. Auggie too. I have no idea about Germany but in FL they don't seem to really care. My headlights are really dark as well.

Taillight covers are the devil because you always want to have them on then you realize even at night people can hardl see through them so during the day your screwed

LilMissLayla 03-24-2009 10:55 AM

I don't know if it makes a difference with being spray tinted but you can see my lights just fine during the day.

I used to have tail light covers, but I took those pieces of shit off because I couldn't get them to stay on. I never had any cops bother me about them. Although, I figure it's better that they're off because now I don't drive with the fear of someone rear-ending me. I also like the look of the red tails more.

I have the taillight covers and no one has bothered me about them.

You can see everything fine, ESPECIALLY at night because the light shines right through the tint.

Definitely makes the taillights look better and I totally would suggest getting them.

AVS taillight covers can't seea damn thing through them

Switch has those tail light covers and I hate riding behind him at meets because I can't see his tail lights at all. I was terrified that I would unintentionally rear-end him.

Haha yeah, in the day time nothing shines through. You have to watch my 3rd brake light. I think I'm going to take them off, though.

I only let one person follow me to shows if i have them on because I usually dont use my brakes I downshift and just use the brakes to come to a final stop and I have one friend thats been following me to shows for years so he knows to give space some people like to get right up your but and you feel if you slow down at all without having bright red lights flashing in their face they would hit you
