Default tinted corners, how to?

This is a very nice civic, sorry I didn't know who's car it is but I used the picture because I like how he/she did the corner lens. Agian sorry for using the picture without asking.





So what part do you tint? The chrome part or the actual clear lens?

Thanks

I think it is custom. You have to take the clear corners apart and paint the inside chrome piece. Then glue it back together.

Would it be street legal with no chrome in there. Some cars don't have chrome in there to begin with. The cops here don't seem to care about anything anyway but just curious.

i tinted my corners on my 94 coupe, cause i have black headlights. all i used was some "night shades" on the outside till it matched up with the headlights. ive had them like that for a year now, and still good as new

Keep amber bulbs in there and you'll be fine.

Might try it sometime then. All they can do is tell me to change it if they don't like it.

I wouldnt tint the corners unless I had the carbonfiber/black housing headlights to compliment them. Are the black/carbon projectors brighter than stock? I really like the black corner/headlight combo!
