Arling has done a few. It really depends on how dark you smoke the lights as well.

My GT2 has a subtle smoked tone to it, JPCuban's car is completely blacked out.

I think subtle is the way to go.

Did you use VHT Nite Shades for the tinting? Can it be taken off?

There is a German spray made by Folia Tec that can be reversed with another spray they make. But it has to be ordered from Germany.

VHT Nite Shades is much cheaper and easily available.

The question is if it can be taken off without destroying the lense.

I decided to sell these rims and sold them to someone in LA. I now run black centers with chrome lip.

The car is at the doctor right now getting some important surgery performed. More on that later.

Tyson, what is the cost to do this? I want somewhere in between tyson's and the cuban's. Would you simply send me a tinted set and I send my standard set back?? Thanks

Lou

I can't remember... I buy and do so much **** at Arling's shop it's hard to keep track, but it should be around a couple hundred or so.

I'm sure Arling will take care of you.
