Quick question
 

Ok so I am wanting to tint my tail light with nightshade but with sanding them I wanted to use 2000 grit sand paper but cam only get my hands on 1200 grit. How much is it going to change the finished product if I use the 1200 grit? Thanks

The P1200 should be OK ....... just don't press down quite as hard as you would with P2000.

Do you realize "nightshade" is poison type of plant .....:eyebulge:

And why do you want to make your tail lights darker ………. ??

Never mind that last question.......:bonk:

Eh? Lol

Any auto parts store should have 2000 grit. At least, that's where I used to find it when I was building guitars.

This might seem like a nice way to mod your car, but consider this: If someone rear-ends you because they don't see your break lights due to the tint, you might end up getting sued. I don't think it's worth it.

....

Give me a break, I was on break.

Man, I'm a stickler for grammar. I can't believe I did that.

lol..its all good

Well in fairness if Sombody rear ends you your tail lights probably would break making your sentence correct in a round about sort of way.

you should be fine with that third brake light on the back window. I had he same issue when I had my AE86. I was rear ended and I had smoked JDM taillights (which weren't that dark at all). The other driver said he didnt see me hit the brakes and told the police that. the police inspected me on the spot and noticed my third brake light and told the other driver that he was pretty much an idiot.

Who cares what a cop thinks? He's just another guy giving an opinion. I imagine having 2/3rds of your brake lights less visible than stock would be a significant fact in a lawsuit.

I think it's pretty effing stupid to make brake and tail lights darker, maybe just take the airbags out while we are removing safety features. Not to mention it looks cheap as hell.

:threadjacked:

Someone please answer me this ....... why do some folks want to modify their cars headlights, so they are as bright as a jet airplane's landing lights coming at you ........ then want to make their car's tail lights as weak as the tail lights on a 1937 Chevrolet ...... ??

:sigh:

Because it's all about me. Headlights too bright for you in your oncoming vehicle? So what, not too bright for me. Taillights too dark for you? What do I care? My car looks good=I look good. It's all about me.
