Official NIGHTFALL GRAY METALLIC 6th Gen Camaro Thread - Page 33

I really like the look of the tinted headlights, but I can't allow myself to buy something that will make it harder for me to see at night while driving.

A lot of cars in my area have this done, and I'm not sure how some of them can see if not in a well lit area. They will take a car with 5+ year old halogen lights, then throw 10% tint over them. It's like being guided by a night light.

So it sounds like I can't just get two identical black SS badges for this. I need to get one with a flat back for the rear of the car, and one with the two plastic rods for the front one.

Not necessarily, the front rods are pretty inconsequential honestly. The adhesive that comes with the black SS's from emblempros are more than sufficient.

I haven't noticed a difference with my gun smoke tinted inserts from Big Worm Graphix. It lets most if not all of the light through at night.

My big worm kit just came yesterday, but I passed on the headlight tint...this might be worth revisiting now after seeing those great shots. Thanks for that.

I should have some nice new shots myself soon. Forgeline called and I should have my new wheels by the end of next week. Also finalized the powder coating exchange for my rear calipers today. if I can get everything installed around the same time, these should make for a very nice appearance update

Nice; the difference in the daytime with the gun smoke headlight tint is stunning. Makes the car look way meaner than before.

Just thought I would add a couple photos from Saturday night. I apologize for the image quality, just a crappy cellphone pic. I had just finished washing the car in the late evening and the lighting was just right. It only lasted a few minutes, and I didn't have enough time to get everything out of the way to get some good pictures. Enjoy anyway!

Later that night, it got some spray wax just prior to autocross the next day. Sorry for the messy garage... someday it will be organized.
