I don't think so i was just in the body shop getting oil changed, tires rotated and inspection, and was talking about getting that exact tint overlay for my tail light and he said he believed it wasn't illegal and his friend has it on the headlights and taillights and hasnt gotten introuble yet......any one find out yet if the eyelids are illegal or not? they dont block any light really

Yea, I asked a cop and he said it wasn't something the cops would bother you about, he said he had a similar type of overlay on his car too as well as tinted front headlights.
Im sure though if a cop really wanted to be an a** he would say something about it.

i didnt really understand the lighting passage that you put in the beggining of this thread. i have a few questions
1. If i get a new exahuast from like nissan in like an upgrade package is that illegal?
2. Are HID's legal in NYC?
3. What are the rules on like neon underbody lights and wheel well kits?
4. Is there a degree to which i can smoke my tail lights? cause the back of the altima has these really chrome and bright feeling to it.
