Default Do or don't do, i need your opinions!

I have a silverstone Z an was wondering if i should smoke out the whole car, basically dark tints, smoked tails, blinkers, light tint on headlights an smoke out front reflectors and powder coat stock rims (they are nice) glossy black an paint over the door handles. I remember seeing a turbo or TT daytona blue Z that smoked out everything an it looked pretty nice, wondering if itll look nice on SS.
Just need another mans/womens opinion an thoughts...Thanks

smoke everything but the headlights, i smoked my tails, blinkers and front reflector and it looks really nice. IMO smoking the headlights looks really tacky.

I've seen a few smoked out SSZ before and it looked great!! I'd say go for it..

not a fan of smoked out headlights though~ O.o don't see the benefits of doing that..

The smoked looks good at times, but overall I think it looks ghetto.

Just know that if a cop were to find out the head/tail lights are tinted, he/she will probably check it out to see if it meets the required visibility for the user and for other drivers to see your brake lights to avoid any accidents.

Other then that I've been wanting to smoke my lights and powder coat the door handles on my silverstone. How much does it cost to powder coat something like the door handle?

I have a SS and I have 5% tint with smoke out tail ligts, reverse lights, and side markers. IMO it looks really good and ive gotten a lot of compliments. Do it.
