I can't see anyways, I blacked out my tail lights. Which is fine. I don't really back up that much.

Taillights could be an insurance issue from what I have ehard. If someone slams into the rearend of you, and you have blacked out or modified tint on taillights, you could get stuck with ticket instead of person whom rear ended you. I did that on my Yukon. Heard that, and ordered brand new OEM one's to replace. Didnt want to chance it.

Throw on some LEDs and a light bar. Then that person would have no excuse. That's what I'm doing. And to pass inspection, I have a spare set.

Congrads on the new tint you will love it. Fallow the directions given by your tinter on when the windows can be rolled down to allow the film to fully set.

Don't role them down for a minimum of 4 days. I'd wait a week

first mod was 18"magnaflow, with silverline tip (off my old Dak), put new decals on side, now tint. prob done for a while with Christmas and a cruise in January! going broke! cant take it with you though! next mod most likely will be CAI. not sure on lifting or lowering because i dont want to buy any new tires but i carry my 4wheeler in the back also. would really like to black my rims though! anyone have a ballpark on how much that runs?
