first mods on the disco

[denviks]

well the disco has been on the road for just over 48hrs now. went to see jonboy today and we did the first mods on her......what do ya think?

tinted rear window and tinted rear lights.


tinted side windows.



just need to oredr my mudclub stickers now. i now have a list of things to do forming. at this rate it shouldnt take long.

[Jim-Willy]

Looks cool.  Are the lights legal?

[denviks]

they look darker than they really are. you can clearly see the colours still..............just not so much in your face.   had plod behind me on the way home and nothing said.  

[driftwood]

looking good,

did you do the tint yourself, if so was it easy and what shade is it?

[Sharpshooter]

Looks nice, what tint did you use? Film or spray, and did you take the windows out? :D

[Andy.]

How did you tint the rear lights, from the outside  :?:

[denviks]

jon boy did the tinting on windows and lights for me. i was just a extra pair of hands as required   ....but the tint is black.  i will get the name of it if required. you have to clean the windows inside and then use water and washing up liquid on the window. a nice wet window, roughly cut size of window out of the sheet and slide in to place. once there you use a plastic spatchular to push the bubbles out and trim to fit. sounds easy but watching jonboy it aint  :lol: . but he did a great job.
as for the lights its just a case of masking around them and spraying them with light tint spray..10 mins and jobs done........hth. if you need anymore ifo then please shout.
cheers

Looking great!!
Nice work on the rear lights.
 :D
(the lights, any sort of paint ok?)

[J B]

no, you have to use a translucent paint, i got some and did mine a few weeks back, dens benefited from what was left in the can, its a bit of a boy racer mod, but an effective one :lol:

[Andy.]

They do look nice, do you have the make of paint used and where can you buy it  :?:

[J B]

i'm sure you can get it from most boy racer goodies outlets, just wear a baseball cap and a hoody, so theyll serve you :lol:

[Jake]

just wear a baseball cap and a hoody, so theyll serve you :lol:

i thought you were going to say steal it (dressed like that)
 :lol:  :lol:

looks good but decided against window tint on the disco. Got in on my shogun but dont use offroad very often, only prob with tinted windows on tight lanes you cant see enough. My rear window is at about chest height as it is so i need all the help i can get. :shock:
Whats next?? :lol:

[denviks]

i did notice tonight that its harder to park in the dark  :shock: .... came as a shock.

I've just bolted one of these on my motor.
They look super'b and hardly stick out!
All you'll have to do is move your oil rad up a couple of inches and cut your grill a bit for the legs. took me 1 1/2 hours at Billing

Are the lights legal?

Yes - the reflectors are still visible.  This is where the boy-racers usually fall foul of the law.  Just don't use too much paint, or the bulbs won't be bright enough to shine through!

Hint: Bulbs can 'blacken' with use, so replacing them can improve things ...
