Why did you choose to leave the turn signals/hazards untinted on the euros?

Looks Great but unfortunately I tried black outs once before and the got 2 warning tickets on two consecutive weekends. It turns out that warning tickets can be seen on your record and the second cop reminded me of that. I still have them somewhere in the basement!!

Because I have strobe lights in them for when I do car shows and parades.

Do you happen to have a spare set of euro tail lights? Just the housings, I don't need the bulbs or wiring harness but I want to keep my untinted ones in case I need to swap them back on for court/cop trouble

I'd like to see pics of this, even if it is just the taillights themselves.

The paint in transparent, retard. In case you don't know what that means here is a definition:

trans·par·ent
   –adjective
1.
having the property of transmitting rays of light through its substance so that bodies situated beyond or behind can be distinctlyseen.

I understand your concern, but I wouldn't have done them if they blocked all the light. In fact about 80% of the light (if not more) still shines through.

Ah, I was hoping they were going to be the euro lights like above, as I already have mine done similar to those pictured.
