My 2000 SSEi Pics - Unique Tails

Post by 00ssei »

Hello Pontiac Bonneville Club members, for those who havent seen my "one of kind tails" here it is. It was tinted by a certified collision shop. Actually somebody I knew that use to work there as a painter did it for me. I was messing around with photoshop and found an idea on how to paint my tail to get the look NOBODY has. Its why i call it UNIQUE tails ;)

Also, I would like to run up for the August Homepage, hope you guys like the bonnie :banana:

I like the tinted tails look. I personally would go maybe just 1 or 2 shades, for a very subtle look.

Unfortunately, you're not COMPLETELY unique - there are quite a few members with tinted taillights, on all gens.

^ well Gill, your right on that, BUT mine is different because i left the clear white reverse light untinted which looks different and much better IMO. I know its almost the same, but when you put a full tinted tails and mine together, you'll see the difference ;)

Thats true - I haven't seen one with the reverse lights left untinted. I like that look better than full tint I think.

With my car being black, I think it would of looked out of place with the reverse lights untinted. Yours do look good though. Here is a side by side comparison:

Yea with your car being all black, the white on the tails will be too much distraction to the rest of the car. But yours being all black on black makes it looks sweet :wink:
