Default Smoked Tail Lights...anyone seen these before?

Or know someone who has them? I used to have them on my old A6 2.7T. I liked them a lot and wanted to have them again for my new S4. But I don't believe I've seen these on anyone's sig pics yet. If so, I guess I'll be the guinea pig and experiment w/ them to see if they are as good in quality like my last pair of smoked tail lights.

Here's a link to the eBay ad.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AUDI-A4-S4-02-05-CRYSTAL-SMOKED-TAILLIGHTS-TAIL-LIGHTS_W0QQitemZ8016904176QQcategoryZ33716QQssPage NameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem">Smoked Tail Lights</a></li></ul>

Actually, I was thinking of using spray tint (night shades). But too scared I might mess them up.

Default Yeah, I don't blame you for not trying that...

the smoked lights on eBay are most likely cheaper than OEM tail lights if they needed to be replaced.

Default Yes, I love rice! Seriously, here's an old sig pic of my A6 2.7T. I don't think it's ricey at all..

but of course we're all entitled to our own opinions. I've been to a few Audi GTGs and always got compliments on it. I'm hoping these turn out just as nice as before.

Default I think if you do lightly and not pitch black, it will look pretty tasteful.

It's just like a roof spoiler one person has. It is very nice, unlike the 'sears' siding sized spoilers you would see on some cavaliers that I see.

Rice is pretty entertaining. There use to be a site where this guy set up and it had the Riciest cars ever. It was extremely entertaining.

Your A6 looks great, but that is a little too much for my taste. I'd probably go with 50% of that.

Default I used Nite Shades on my A4 tails..

check myt picposter, there is a closeup view of them, imo they looked perfect...

I have a fresh can waiting to use on the S, though I am still hesitant.
