Tinted taillights. - DRIVE2
This is called styling and tuning. It might look really good. At an exhibition or in a showroom. But not on the road.
Your car is a source of increased danger. The taillights are exactly the same optical device as the headlights. But here engineers, in addition to tasks in terms of lighting area and viewing angles, have to solve a trivial problem of balance: in the dark, the lanterns should not blind those driving behind, and on the other hand, they should be visible in the brightest sunny.
Tinting lamps impairs viewing angles by reducing the luminous flux from the film / coating.
And if the car is also dirty?
An active safety element turns into a potential cause of an accident.
Any self-made deterioration of the luminous flux is regarded by the traffic police as a violation of clause 3.3 of the SDA "Do not work in the prescribed mode or external light devices and reflectors are dirty". In some corners of our vast Motherland, you will be obliged to eliminate this pollution on the spot.
There are tuning lights from well-known manufacturers, whose products, having an original design, fully comply with international quality standards (Pro Sport, etc. do not apply to them).
An excerpt from GOST, which guides the passage of the TRP:
4.3.2.1 Destruction and cracks of the diffusers of light devices (except for fog lights) and the installation of additional optical elements in relation to the design of the light device (including colorless or painted optical parts and films) are not allowed ...
Classic "collective farm" with paint on old lanterns.
Film tinting. Better, of course, but compare to the brightness of the brake lights of the neighboring cars!
Particularly good shot: stock Camry on the left!
by Kokka
The arrow marks the stop, which is dimmer than the PTF. (By the way, Logan's right stop was burning brighter than the left one shown in the photo.)
Just dirty lanterns. Not tinted. How would they be seen if they were tinted?
The photo shows the cool stylers. Sometimes the lights don't work normally and the cars are dirty. Compare brightness with dopstop and especially with neighboring cars.
on many foreign cars, tinted rear lights shine better than on domestic standard ones))
do not confuse factory styling lights from the same Hella with a domestic collective farm with films - this is always at the expense of safety
film is tin. I meant light spraying. visibility practically does not worsen, quite a bit
Each also has its own degree of ease. Especially in Russia :-(
Factory lantern is a piece certified in the form in which the car came off the assembly line. And in sunny weather, and at night, and in dirty autumn - it always meets the requirements of the standard. working "range of lamps. To a greater or lesser extent. In an amicable way, this is regulated by laws - we have personal feelings, tastes, ideas about beauty (the so-called styling) and other garbage. Only not by the direct naming of a lamp and safety.
Tinted lights are the biggest ass you can get! Spit only by sharp braking in a dense traffic stream with inoperative stoplights! Aesthetics, of course, are purely individual, but the taillights should be visible first of all. The very same is calmer when they are read, isn't it? And, with all due respect to the tuners, a chisel is a chisel, either with black lanterns, or with entirely red ones (that was also nonsense at one time), or with factory ones - shit by shit (in terms of aesthetics). :) PS But the tiniest thing is when the lights are in body color (for example, they are tinted with snow, it used to be sold) - even in the daytime you have to squint to understand whether it slows down or not ...
And I have factory tinted taillights on a Ford 92nd year!
Indeed, they are not just covered with a film, but kind of smoky - there the plastic itself is special ...
for me a stupid topic, there are some people who go to extremes, there is someone who pastes the car with Sparko stickers and rushes, and there are a lot of such examples, in their right mind no one will paint with pure black paint, but put a couple of layers of black varnish, and tint with a film with 10 % dimming that won't change anything ...
collective farm xenon is many times more dangerous!
pay attention to how they are viewed on other machines. The monitor does not transmit absolute values; comparison helps to assess the degree of damage.
In the photo from 99, look at Vitara on the right, and the Focus of the upper feet is not tinted - and the brightness should be the same.
The main thing is that the lights can be seen in the daytime! Indeed, collective farm xenon is much more dangerous! In the presented photos, the feet and dimensions are very clearly visible at the focus and at the nine, and if you do not see, check your eyesight ...
Only the device can determine the degree of "sufficiency". There is a certified lantern, there is traffic rules. In accordance with them, such tuning is illegal. Yes, we all spat on traffic rules, his own idiots in uniform write. We know better ...
The fact that the brightness is different is understandable, but the machines that I have highlighted have more than sufficient brightness! Take the new Infinity and the new Mondeo, the brightness is also different: Infinity's feet are dazzling, but Mondeo's are not (so for example) ...
Firstly, we read the topic, there is a GOST - you can't go through.
Secondly, traffic rules:
Thus, in the appendix to the "Basic Provisions for the Admission of Vehicles to Operation" there is a "List of faults and conditions under which the operation of vehicles is prohibited". In particular, there is clause 3.1. "The number, type, color, location and mode of operation of external lighting devices does not meet the requirements of the vehicle design." There is also a more interesting point 3.3. "Do not work in the established mode or external light devices and reflectors are dirty." However, as practice shows, the maximum for such "hooliganism" the traffic police inspector will issue a fine of 50 rubles. In addition, the Traffic Regulations of the Russian Federation contain an almost universal excuse: "2.3.1. ...
(Taken from here www.personalmoney.ru/txt.asp?rbr=204&id=571812 )
They can sew an article:
Driving a vehicle, on the front of which there are light devices with red lights or red reflective devices, as well as light devices, the color of the lights and the mode of operation of which do not meet the requirements of the Basic Provisions for the Admission of Vehicles to Operation and the duties of officials persons to ensure road safety
- deprivation, from 6 months to 1 year
And this is already a reason for talking about other money.
such individuals dwindle to death, neither turners nor stops are visible, a couple of times I almost drove such stylers in the ass.

The tinted ottiki (however, just like xenon in foglights and tinted glass around) has one plus - you can immediately see the downs in the stream. Unfortunately, there are a lot of them in Russia. Hence the war on the roads, hence the rivers of blood, hence the tens of thousands of corpses annually.
Dangerous? Yes. Naturally, but these downs also drive to the first Kamaz, which, when struck from the back, cuts off the heads of their loved ones, and leaves the imbitsils themselves crippled for life.
I will not believe that you drive your Lexus within clearly specified speed limits.
And now you are talking about some accidents.
Listen to you, so all the bad people who do something against the letter of the law.
It's funny just ...
Well, for example, I have toning in a circle, and xenon everywhere ...
Tell me what am I down?
What does it have to do with corpses and rivers of blood on the roads!
Good head lighting only + to safety, recently our stupid "shoulder straps" have realized this too ... Everything is well regulated, I don't blind anyone ...
And the toning is different, I have a high-quality film through which it is very clearly visible, and it is not 95% of course ...
So you are somehow sharp, then 80% of motorists in the downs recorded ...
And about the TOPIC of this post - I completely agree, Caucasians and "collective farmers" really, for not having money, concepts, maybe just mind, wanting to look cool - they paint the rear lights from spray cans in 5-7 layers, and sometimes they glue the film ... , they are, of course, wrong and dangerous ... In general, there is a lot of injustice and various annoying moments!
I support the author! Raised a hot topic!
But here we need to talk about broader concepts, such as GENERAL CULTURE of a person, hence the culture of behavior on the road and
elsewhere ... Unfortunately, the well-known events in our country (perestroika, collapse, dashing nineties and all other related ) our citizens were sharply "lowered", people "run wild", but I believe that this will pass, it is necessary to remake YOURSELF and raise your children correctly!
Good luck everyone!

The more stupid the fashion, the wider it spreads.
What is the beauty of filled stops?
It may be easier to take and unscrew the light bulbs, one figs cannot see them.
so the meaning of the pictures is in comparing the work of stopars and dimensions against the background of untinted cars. A mere standing machine is of no interest. And in the case of Ford, everything is not so sad, although in real life there is a noticeable difference in the brightness of the lanterns and the non-tinted dopstop.
in the photo with a Ford is on the right of a Honda which also has toning but not filmed it!

look where to throw in general! if it is tight, then yes it is bad, but if you do it wisely in one layer or with a light film, then it looks class and you can see everything perfectly, but on a sunny day, by default, you can't see a fucking thing, most often who tints the headlights, then it is not much and the car is done his scrubbing almost every day, and some go without tonirvka for months and they do not care about the headlights at all, so what's better eh? but what infuriates most of all is that you are guided by stoppers or keep your distance, do not blame everything on this nonsense ...
I completely agree with Lem.
Leonadze
if a person does not look at the pillar - what is the fault of the pillar :?
I agree!
and we're not talking about pillars right now;) by the way, there are also GOSTs and SNiPs on the pillars, and everything is harder there than with tints.
Road safety is made up of little things. If a person does not see the styler's stop - what is his fault?
look where to throw in general! if it is tight, then yes it is bad, but if you do it wisely in one layer or with a light film, then it looks class and you can see everything perfectly, but on a sunny day, by default, you can't see a fucking thing, most often who tints the headlights, then it is not much and the car is done his scrubbing almost every day, and some go without tonirvka for months and they do not care about the headlights at all, so what's better eh? but what infuriates most of all is that you are guided by stoppers or keep your distance, do not blame everything on this nonsense ...
and what is it written according to GOST? that I will not pass THAT and that the one who hits my ass will be guilty, I, etc.? hmm xs ... I have tinted varnish, everything is visible day and night, and then the devil of problems passed ...
I leave links everywhere, because it is corny to contradict GOST and SDA. There it is written in black and white about it.
first of all, he will not notice the car to which he approached too close, but he will notice the headlights because all correctly tinted headlights shine well, I repeat again no worse than those that just got dusty ... there is only one thing, but this is a 5-layer spray bought on the market ... this is tin, by the way, all the photos that you have are these cheap stuff, but you leave links everywhere, even where everything is done with high quality ...
We must take the best, and not all one size fits all. What is the problem? It's just that in our country the system for monitoring the state of the vehicle fleet does not work. Therefore, there are equally a lot of cool stylers and semi-dead troughs on the roads.
I do not want everything like in Europe, I feel good here too, but there, for some reason, no one knocks down the side of the road before the railway crossing in a traffic jam.
I don't know, perhaps this is no longer a question of the observance of laws, but of elementary education and mutual respect.
If you keep up with Europe all the time, then you can ban thorns and a lot more ... In general, comments like "But in Europe it is so ... they have everything right and we need it so ..."
Not about people who tint lanterns and not about those who then sit in a gelding with amr numbers.
I ask about those who directly develop laws, guests. Who do you think they are?
These norms fully correspond to European ones, and it was not just Uncle Vasya who came up with this, although we also have uncles who understand this issue much more than you and I.
In general, you need to start with yourself, and not kick at those in power.
I mean, does it tint the lights?
Yes, in order to somehow stand out against the background of thousands of identical cars, after all, some models are very good at this tinting, well, or simply - the traditional "like"! On almost all foreign cars with such a pribluda there is an additional brake light on the rear window - it is clearly visible even through a fairly strong tint, and if the driver driving for such a car is not blind, or does not look around, but does not bang on his mobile phone, then notice that the car brakes is always possible!
As for the laws, and you didn’t think that who invents and signs them, then sits in a tightly tinted Mercedes with numbers, such as AMR97 and with a flashing light on the roof, flies along the oncoming or dividing lane at a speed of no less than 100 km / h Further?
In Russia, all the same "from the top" and begins ...
These are the principles not of a communist but of a civilized society - to respect others. I don't give a damn about your tinted lights. But there is nothing good about that. 5-7% is not bullshit, every specialist will tell you.
I believe that everyone should respect the taste (opinion of the other) and this is the problem of humanity ... especially in Russia ... People, forget the communist system, where everyone is equal, because we strive for a democratic state (I mean not official status, but reality ) ... so you don't have to be a gray mouse ...
but about tinting ... this is done in three stages and if done efficiently (for someone it will probably be more understandable - expensive), then the light transmission is violated by 5-7%, which in itself is not cretical ! The author was just offended by tinted headlights, so he was offended! And instead of being in vain to flood ... I would do better myself!
... and be more mature (and maybe smarter) do not write me anything else. I understand your policy, I will see ... on the street I will miss it ... maybe it will be easier for you!
Added two photos. Camry with cleaned film-tinted lights. And Galant (rushing through the rows), as I understand it, with paint. Compare with the stops of cars standing nearby. It is not rewarding to compare the light by the "eye", but in my opinion, it does not smell like 5-7% percent.
Yes, I can't go for such drivers at all, especially in a traffic jam. when you are going, you are going and pushing sharply brakes. as they do not understand that because of such a mega blah tyuninha you can not only lose time but also health.
I would be idiots doing it with taillights nah ... FSUs ... I would kill at all ... I'm
telling a real case that happened to me with the participation of a car with such a tyhhhning:
It was this winter, I was returning late in the evening from Gorodnya (a village in the Tver region) along Leningradka, there were few cars, respectively, I was driving along the left lane (two-lane road) at a speed of 90-100 km / h, smoothly catching up with a truck going along the right lane ... and suddenly, for no apparent reason, the truck driver gives a long such beep with her "blower" and the emergency gang blinked a couple of times ... I, without understanding his maneuver, well, I drive myself further ... and then 15-20 meters away (my speed is 100 km / h) in front of me THIS appears (naturally in a stationary position with the turn on) ... just with tinted lights from and to ... how I drove this miracle, I did not understand at all, it felt so much that I flew overin general, it spun me around all 4 (including 2 opposite) lanes of Leningradka ... When I stopped and realized what had happened, I thought I would kill the fuck of this bastard ... but his trace was gone ... no damage to my Toyota Thank God, only the rubber from side slides stank the whole neighborhood ... only then I realized that the driver of the truck himself noticed the idiot only when he caught up with him (fortunately, there were different lanes) and tried to warn me ...
This is how it happens ...
toned with varnish and glad ... everything is visible day and night ... and MOT went without problems ...
When an American car is driving along the road, I personally, accustomed to orange turn signals, perceive the red ones as feet or dimensions - as a result, there is an extra confusion that may well cause an accident.
European standards specifically made the turn signal orange.
It's your business, you don't formally break the rules.
In principle, I agree that toning fanars is nonsense. However, I myself am going to tint the sprays RED paint the rear turners.
decent in terms of acceptability of toning lights. Nothing depends on the brand here. Tightly smeared lanterns are equally common on eights and cayenne.
Decent in what sense?
In my opinion, most of the cars in the photo are worthy cars, or, say, Cayenne or BMW 5, in your opinion - "atstoy lohovsky"?
This is no longer styling, but a direct intervention in the design of the car. And these lights are really worse to see. If that suits you, then I'm not.
I don’t come up with anything and don’t finish drawing, I just see what is driving through the streets, and I photograph without choosing someone better or worse. This is to the question of what we, they say, do normally, and you tell us about the pots. Look what is driving the streets. From this heap of decent only 1-2 cars.
There were regular dark lights on the golf courses, but these are not them. Those Hella lanterns shine right.
If you talk like that, then everything is dangerous, anything can lead to an accident, even a grandmother crossing the road can also cause an accident, well, is it worth forbidding grandmothers to go out on the streets of cities? And so on ... Nothing will change from this post, everyone will do the styling of their car as they want. Personally, I am not against such "improvement", if I had, say, a black car, maybe I did it myself, another question is that, indeed, sometimes there are various "Basins", old "Boomers" this.
PS By the way, in the photo with Golf there is a 3-stock car, in some version, which was made at the end of production)
I fully agree with the author and just wildly surprised at how many disagreements were found Here on Drive2, which I personally considered the place where most people try to be cultured on the road.
You do not tint the headlights, obviously, then they will shine worse :-)
No need to poke a finger at everyone, they say, we all ride like that. For me personally, these people are not a landmark. It is fashionable to drive with a long distance now. And what? Also what to cut in?
Try to start with yourself.
I don’t know guys, partly you are right, partly not. Everyone's business is what to do and how. If the author is confused by something about such cars, then don't go after them, we don't have that many of them. But I'm afraid he will have to be afraid of everything, tk. in our countries everything is not according to GOSTs and not according to the rules ...
that's right, the rich and smart will buy factory tuning optics, and the rest will "mow for the rich" :-)
We have it like this, whoever wants and can, and who can’t stand and smoke on the sidelines)))
In such situations, thoughts always come to mind about the poor and the rich. So you can talk about this parallel and similar topic all your life ...
That's right, "totality". It's just that one of the most important moments of this aggregate is deliberately deteriorating. So no?
I am glad that you do not drive more than 60. And here I moved to the dacha and every day I go from west to east in the morning, and back in the evening. In both cases, the sun is shining in the eyes, and the speeds on the track are also different. In short, I stay away from the "stylers", I'm calmer.
I also came to the idea that bright feet are needed not by an attentive driver and that a person evaluates the situation by an aggregate sign, and not by one footsteps. The only thing I agree that this worsens the situation at speeds above 100, and since we all drive no more than 60 around the city, then you yourself understand the risk is minimal and not worth so many disputes. And, in principle, it is clear that the flashlights lit up, even when toning the stops ...
That's right ...
What is deliberately changed, I agree.
Now, in the sunlight, you are in the windshield, you don't really see your feet in general, even if they are not sunk.
You are right about the rich, but about myself I will say that I did it because of the appearance, and not because of the fact that I seemed richer. And I will not speak for the rest.
Well, with a grumbler you did it =)
In principle, I agree with almost everything said. The only difference is in the nuances. Simply, in my opinion, there are many more adequate people than "1 in 10", everything else is a matter of taste or lack of it.
Regarding technical inspection "with us" =) I do not know, maybe I haven’t passed it "in a new way" yet.
In fact, we are somewhat alike, it's just that I am more annoyed with "kind of cool" photos. This, of course, is not as "terrible" as toning, but still grumble sometimes and I do not mind =)
I'm just completely against the standards, but the above photos refute the words about "normal people" who know "measure". There are 1 in 10 of them. Yes, there are such, but when the ratio in life turns out to be something like this, they turn on the law with protection from fools. Another thing is that it doesn't work. Now you can pass the TRP at any accredited service station. Has something changed for the better?
Again, I saw about as many examples of tinting that were really successful in terms of beauty as well as technically sensible ones. In short, very little.
If I push anything, it's just common sense. A normal person, understanding the essence, will at least think about it. For me, it's better to engage in such unpopular pushing than to write "catch five", "car mortality", etc. under each car. nonsense. It's boring without grumblers, D2 is already too "sweet", sobering injections are necessary ;-)
How do I know why? It’s just that I got the impression and that's it.
This question is very controversial - on the one hand, I support you, there are such specimens that do not know the measures and I myself try not to go after them, but ... There are no more of them than the sovavtoprom, in which the bulbs want to burn, but they want to - they don't the owners don't give a damn about it. I also think that grandfathers on pennies and chasers on merskvich are much more dangerous than tinted lights in the dark, simply because the lights are visible and you are already, one might say, warned, but grandfathers are not visible until he throws out some kind of trick.
On the other hand, there are normal people, with an adequate sense of proportion, who want to make the car a little more stand out from the stream of the same, while doing it sensibly, thinking both about their safety and about other road users. There are also quite a few of them, believe me, and "one size fits all" is not worth it.
And you just left a very hard-hitting record in everyone's blogs, about the fact that all people who do not live according to the Standard are at least idiots. This is what really confused me, and made me think that you are "pushing" =)
And why should I "push through" the law? ;-)
I tried to explain a lot of times that there is a fundamental difference between the "cilia", painted calipers and the brightness of the backlight of the radio tape recorder against the "tuning" and "styling" of lighting equipment.
Autolight is one of the most important elements of active safety.
Why and for whom are taillights needed?
Dimensions: to indicate a car for other road users
Brakes: to designate a car for other road users
Turn signals: to designate a car for other road users
Fog lights: to designate a car for other road users
Reverse: to designate a car for other road users and to illuminate the road the driver when reversing.
In total, out of five functions, specifically for the driver, half of one is needed :-) Theoretically, the driver can do without lights at all. We need them with you - those who travel in other cars.
So why the hell is this styler in pursuit of "beauty" doing worse to everyone around? This is not pushing the law, but a way to draw people's attention to the problem. In this case, the problem of ignorance and bad manners of individual participants in the movement.
About bulbs in the head light is the same, only worse. See the blog post about xenon in PTF, and links to my auto light autodetective fact.
The impression was that the author was "pushing through" the law =)
Well, I don’t like it, and okay, but why should YOUR opinion (even if based on GOST) be imposed on others and almost all of them on the pages. Afraid, keep your distance.
This is about the same as saying - I don't like the "cilia" on the headlights, it's not according to GOST (any other "standard") - and let's get everyone with what YOU don't like.
Well, or, for example, change the light bulbs in the head light. Don't you think it might annoy someone?
Maya, it looks like you are from the next ward of my clinic :-)
www.drive2.ru/users/atas2...blog/1729382256910273941/
not with a film, but with paint. I will not touch the reflectors, it is worth xeno 5, and there will be PTF, so it will not bring any discomfort to me in that chile either.
Well, the front ones ;-) With the front ones, you won't bring any inconveniences to anyone but yourself. These odiot engineers are fighting for extra percentages of headlights, and we are using their film-film :-)
I fully agree with the author. It is clear that everything happens due to disrespect for other road users. This is from the series - to overtake a traffic jam on the side of the road. On the other hand, the state is to blame for the fact that everyone does "styling" as they want, as someone wrote here. But we live in RUSSIA and here it will always be in my opinion, and there is only one way out of this - Sheremetyevo-2.))
Recently I drove for an eight, where the lanterns were wildly painted over with black paint, and besides, only one lamp worked. well, you can't do this ... if such lamps are still dirty, then they really can just be removed and that's it
Actually, that's what I'm talking about.
The full version of the article www.zr.ru/a/12336/ (It compares two Tuaregs - with halonen and factory xenon.)
Equally, the term "pseudo-xenon" can also be referred to as "collective farm" xenon. And if, in the case of 100W lamps, the focusing of the spiral relative to the reflector is still preserved, then in the collective farm-xenon version, neither the shape, nor the size, let alone the luminosity, are in general not compatible with the reflector. Outcome - the collective farm is blind. Adjustments are meaningless. And this system works almost like a good long-range factory xenon - fry, as it is written in the article.
Earlier Behind the wheel really "sang songs" about the joys of xenon, to please advertisers. Just like most automotive publications still do.
For example, Autoworld: www.avtomir.com/aboutauto/parts/4515/ (here is generally a demonstrative deer in the picture - this is actually the place where the eyes of oncoming drivers are.)
Or here is the same ZR with advertising of the Union of Xenon:
www.zr.ru/a/1624/
www.zr.ru/a/8072/
But from fresh.
www.zr.ru/articles/58368
www.zr.ru/a/13761/
uzr.com.ua/pbs.php?pbl_action=view&pbl_id=2571
Still, it is worth looking at the novelty through the eyes of the oncoming driver - we take the fire on ourselves. It turns out that statements about the harm of "xenon" to others ... are exaggerated. Oncoming cars with yellow and blue-white light evoke the same emotions if the headlights are correctly adjusted: neither halogen nor xenon ones with a properly working beam position corrector do not blind. But in the high beam there is a difference - "xenon" is perceived more sharply. Therefore, it is better to switch to the near one not for the prescribed traffic rules of 150 m, but a little earlier, without waiting for you to be asked about it.
It's hard to tell the difference when the headlights appear in the rearview mirror: halogen and xenon dazzle about the same. The situation is easy to fix by switching the mirror to night mode. By the way, in many cars, the picture darkens without assistance. Then no rays are terrible.
But if at least one of the headlights is not adjusted or the car is equipped with a "pseudo-xenon" - just powerful bulbs with blue bulbs ... Here, blinding to the oncoming driver is guaranteed! However, the violator, as a rule, can see worse than even with the usual, but correctly exposed light.
Of course, xenon headlights are not without drawbacks, but driving with them is still safer than with regular light. Are they worth the money? In my opinion, investments in security always pay off handsomely. It is better to spend money on branded "bright" headlights than on a senseless (and sometimes even unsafe!) Plastic body kit or appliqués for the dashboard "wood" or "carbon". Do not agree? Then let's try this: "xenon" is fashionable and beautiful. May beauty save the world.

Behind the wheel No. 3 2006
Poke at least one link to this funny saying :-)
On the contrary, the halogen light spectrum is more natural to the eyes than the ragged spectrum of a xenon lamp. All other things being equal, a xenon lamp gives twice as much light from a halogen, of course, that it will not be less dazzling.
It was always considered the other way around: although xenon is more blinding, eyes move away from it faster than from halogens ... And it was not my idea ...
Well, I don’t quite agree, I personally don’t like the blinding eyes of xenon (in the collective farm tuning), the eyes move away from it longer than from the blinding FAR light of ordinary headlights (whether it is Japanese or European)
. I have optics adapted for right-hand traffic
In Russian, is it to buy a right-hand drive and dazzle oncoming people with original optics? ;-) Nothing personal, just in Moscow time, right-hand drive owners have long been bothering with the problem of adapting headlights to right-hand traffic :-( In this regard, they are quite competitors to any other cars with collective farm xenon (not necessarily cans).
toning the taillights is of course very bad, especially when they are covered with a film in the color of the bond (for example, metallic). But as in Europe, I don’t want to live, there are very wild fines for overweight cars, when in Russia every second one drives with an overload, you cannot put casting to your taste, but only the diameter that is prescribed by the manufacturer, and there are also a lot of zamarochek as emissions CO2, etc.
Russia is not thinking about tinting, but how, for example, to prohibit the right-hand drive, or how to prohibit American turn signals - red, but as for direct safety (whether it is tinted taillights, blinding xenon on the basins), this is the 10th case)
That let's continue to live our life - in Russian)))
Yes, you can generally remove the lights and leave one additional stop. It did not occur to you why, during the evolution of lighting technology, there was first one lamp on the car, then the brake lamp appeared, then there were two of them, their brightness grew, the area too. In the end there were three of them. To be clearly visible.
why do you need headlights and all 3 have a brake light which is always visible developed here the topic is nothing!
Any tinting on headlights, lanterns is completely unnecessary. Firstly, this, as has been said many times, is dangerous, secondly, it disfigures the car, and thirdly, by default it worsens the attitude of the orkus. In short, it is not clear why this should be done. Styling? It's ugly. Stand out? It’s like that for everyone. Nonsense.
