anybody interested in a group buy to get their taillights or headlights done? i guess this would be a feeler?

original price is $175 for tailights and headlights
(headlights will take longer)...
it should take at least 2 to 3 hours to complete..

3 or more people it will be $160

10 or more it will be $140....

I was told too that they can do custom tailight colors to match your car..

http://www.smokedlightz.com
they are located in inglewood\

here are samples from their site...

Even for a lifetime warranty, that's a ridiculous price.

Etka,
At least you can peel off the overlays when you have to. W/ paint, it'd be a bit harder.

lifetime warranty on what?!? Vinyl?

www.bluebatmobile.com

if you get em from him at one of the meets, it's like $25 ...


If this is a painted tint then I will retract my bashing of this, but for now .... this is a total ripoff

its painted, 2-3 hours for it to dry...
i told them that the price was high and reason for price to be so high is because of the quality of work.. as they said

let me make it clear, i have NOTHING against bat and his overlays or any other overlays out there... i am simply showing my350z.com alternate solutions.. There is no need for bashing.. there is an old saying, if you cant say something nice then dont say anything at all.

now, i figured, maybe i can get 10+ more people to do this project, then we can get the price down.. if anybody was interested...

i asked the guy at smokedlightz.com if they are illegal, he said he and his customers had no complaints and that he got pulled over with the tints on and they didnt say anything about it, they pulled him because of the tints on his windows, thats about it..

he said that they way they tint them will make it so that when light hits the reflector, it will still work, and if that works.. then your okay..

For $200 they should open the lights and paint the inside.
