Default Tinted head and tail light covers

What's up guys and gals. I'm looking for some tinted head light and tail light covers to put on my 2012 FX4. i've been searching the internet but all i've found so far are the complete LED kits.

My FX4 is leased and I haven't made up my mind yet if i'm gonna keep it at the end of the three years or not so i don't wanna go to crazy yet with changing parts on it so the LED kits don't work for me.

Anyone know where I can get tinted covers?

thanks,
Alain.

checked those out. i'd like to get something that doesn't have the company logo on them. Those GTS covers have the logo on them.


anyone else?

As good as the blacked out tails and heads look on a vehicle when it's parked, it never made much sense to me for a vehicle that's driven. Why would you want to decrease your visibility? Blacked out tails can be really difficult to see during the day, which obviously increases your chances at being rear ended. I hate driving behind vehicles with them. And the dark headlights just make seeing at night that much more difficult. Seems like a silly thing to do.

But, it's your vehicle, so do what you want to do. And make sure it's legal in your state.

I tinted my tails with static cling tint

the GTS is just stickers, they will come off. and for some reason if it is paint, a little paint thinner will take it right off...
