I always thought smoked/darkened lenses looked shitty/ghetto/lame/stupid. Part of my thought process is: why darken a light?

But, I'm old, so what do I know.

I've heard that if you have blackouts and you get rear ended, the insurance company might try not to pay since you darkened the stock lights.

Could be total bs, but just something to chew on. I think they look kinda cool.

I'd just get the covers. If you get tired of them....you can pull them off. I did after I while but I might rock them again some day. My car with the covers on:

See, I don't like those ninetres, and it's nothing personal b/c if you like them, that's what matters. But, it reminds me of the tards on the freeway who drive without tailights/brakelights b/c they're too poor or stupid to fix it.

It's like "Wow, I almost rear ended a Hyundai Excel".
