Styling Stilo "Dark Edition" Rear Lights

[reecurner3]

Hi, I haven't been on the forum since I sold my Stilo last year, I still have access to it as my younger brother now has it, so I get to have a tinker every now and again

Some of you may have seen the rear lights I made for the stilo, well i have made another set of them, I currently have the one set which are up for sale in the for sale section and if anyone else is interested in having a set made then send me a PM, there is a link in my sig to the advert

Here are a few picutres, the ones off the car are the actual set I currently have, the ones on my old stilo are well, still on there

I think we PM'd a while back about your old tail lights, I assume they are still being used on the car after you sold it, in which case I'd definitely be interested in a set of these.

Thanks for your interest, they only way I can see them being lighter is if I was to use a sort of dark grey paint instead of black, but i'm not sure how they would look, if you want i can do a test on the next set I make and send you a photo to see what you think before i reseal the unit?

That'd be great, it'd be nice to maybe see a comparison photo of the lights with/without the tints? mainly because my Stilo is dark coloured and i'm not a huge fan of tinted lights [strictly personal choice though, i have seen other models where they look great on]

Okay, as I said on the next set I make i'll do a test with dark grey to see if it comes out any lighter, and good idea, i'll get some comparison photos up and i'll also get some photos, or even upload a video of the lights on.

On a side note, if anyone is worried about light output or anything, these lights have passed 3 mots (the last mot was actually on wednesday) the lights are still bright and clearly visible on a sunny day

A photo or video with the lights on would be good only problem I could see with tinted lights is the reflectors but from the photos I can tell you got round that problem one way or another
