They are tinted. I removed all of the exterior lights and had a buddy tint them... he uses a gloss black/clear coat mix and wet sands/buffs and they turn out really well and the light still shines through great!


Thanks guys!

I've had my car since HS and has treated me well through college. That picture of you car stuffed to the brim brings memories haha.

While at my university (university of San Diego), my car is below avg. at best. New M5's M6's, porsche's, gt3, 911, lots of e55, e65, sl65,55, cls55,63, gtr, ford gt, etc etc, then we have a prince from dubai who goes to our school and pulls up daily with a different car. I have seen him drive multiple ferraris, aston martins, 2 Z06, limited edition viper, ducati, range rovers, new camero, and more, every one of his car has the license plate dubai1,2,3,4,5 etc, I have seen up to dubai 15...

As much as I love my car, when I see these rich kids pull up in their cars, i do get envious. This trend probably has something to do with the tuition being $57,000 a year.

Regardless, I love you vette, and personally, love driving my vette around campus. Although it may not be the nicest, its definitely one of the loudest hahah.
