Why does the RCK cruise have to be on the same night as the showdown? Argh...

Nice VN beefcream! Good to see a fellow white VN Berlina in Adelaide
But damn are those rear lights dark. After bein defected for both blue parkers and tinted rear lights i might suggest you try using some masking tape around the reflectors then use some cotton wool and nail polish remover on the tint on those reflectors. If you untint the reflectors you cant be defected for tinted rear lights, and it looks good too in my opinion. Although you still need to be able to see the brake lights and indicator from 30m away in the daytime...

[beefcream]

does that include all brakes lights..lol wat about one in the back window? were u drivin wid parkers on? how did u get defected for that

I got pulled over by police and they checked over my car, asking me to put my lights on and obviously they saw the blue parkers. You can see them when ur headlights are on as well, but its not easy to see.

Each brake light should be able to be seen from 30m back in the daytime. Its not a matter of having 1 brake light that u can see out of the 5 on your car lol. Same goes for reversing lights and indicators too. But your rear lights are tinted pretty massively, so i cant see you going too long without getting defected eventually because it is pretty dangerous and if you get a cop behind you it wuldnt be good.
