not sure about the window tint, but as for cops i dont think you should have an issue as long as your lights are visible through it. I have black headlight covers and i drive with them on at night and have never had an issue, and ive seen plenty of cops.

We talked about this on Facebook. Window tint isn't made to be outside and it's not going to last. Get some spray tint from CT and if you fuck up, wetsand them down smooth, polish and try again.

You my not-friend, are a danger to everyone on the road driving with those covers on. Smarten your lazy fucking ass up and take them off when the sun goes down!

in the left hand - Nice legal set of jetta tails that you wont have to take off when you do get stopped.

Or in the right hand - el cheapo , ghetto set of black OEM tails that you will spend money on painting + when you get a fine + you will need to by a new set when you do get a fine and need them removed.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

( piiiiiissssttt get a set of ebay you stingy basturd!)

Step 1: Buy these taillight films from eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-JETTA-TAIL-LIGHT-SMOKED-TINT-COVER-99-00-01-02-03-04_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ38661QQihZ008QQitemZ180246978449QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW#ebayphotohosting

Step 2: Go to Apple Auto Glass on a Saturday and be reaaaalllly nice to Vaughn and he'll probably give you a hand and do a professional job.

It's about the best you'll be able to do without replacing the tails.
