Won't that make the light useless?? Plastidip goes on like bedliner. You can use a product like VHT night shades if you're looking to tint your lights.

You wouldn't be able to see the lights if you dip them.

You could spray them with a LIGHT coat of VHT so that they're still safe when driving at night. If you ever got pulled over for them, use something like nail-polish remover or paint thinner?

I know they look pretty sweet when they're tinted... But... Weigh your options
