Safety or appearance ?! - Toyota Celica, 2.0L, 1995

In general, I toil with a choice:
Tinted turn signals (front, side) and rear optics for the sake of appearance, or leave it as it is, so that others do not strain?
I think to tint with varnish with the addition of black paint, we tried it already, it turns out very well :)

Who thinks what?

I think you shouldn't do it) If it looks like it is on a white car. In general, it is better to put crystal turn signals, it will look much more interesting.

mmm ... I didn't really understand about the collective farm ... I'm not going to tighten the film, but slightly change the shade so that there are no bright colors except for airbrushing)))

Do you have a Zhiguli or something? Why do you need this collective farm?
Do not be like "real potsanchiki" on "real devices" ...

feet should not be tinted, except that a light layer of varnish, through which the lantern shines through even during the day

in the footsteps - just decided to tint with varnish, adding a little black paint to it, it will not interfere with the view of others (checked), but it will slightly muffle and give a shade)))

Here's the crystal, this is a collective farm ... a fit for Chinese cheap stuff ... It is better to slightly tinted the originals ... It is better to buy restyled headlights for a start and tint them a little, IMHO!)))

at Seryoga maddy IMHO it looks too tinted)) it looks on white, it will hardly be so good on black ... the idea is to change the
shade Shl curren and selica in general, then safsem relatives)))

I'm already looking at some of the karenovodov watching this project =)
PY maddy has cool toned ... the current day I did not see how they shine - so at least one thread is visible? =))

Just the varnish will be absolutely PPC ...
And where did you get the idea that the film is a collective farm? The collective farm is a toning A5 to tighten. I recommend taking a closer look at the Oracal 8300, it is brown, but on the lanterns it gives off a dark shade. Its light transmittance is 92%, so you only lose 8% of light! Buy new bulbs and nothing changes ...

Mmm ... thank you, of course, for talking about the films))) in general, I've been doing advertising for 6 years already, I run my own advertising agency at the moment, so, believe me, I know firsthand about films :) there is not a single suitable shade in the 8300 palette ...
About the collective farm - the conversation was about crystal turn signals (i.e. transparent white).
