Smoked fog lights

I got my windows tinted and decided I’d try smoking the fog lights. I really like the way they look with the extended shadow line. Thought I’d share.

Looks stunning. Can't imagine how it will look with black rims.

Thanks! I agree it would look good with black wheels but I’m currently on a no black wheel kick. Maybe down the line to spice things up a bit.

Looks great, especially with the paint color and extended Shadowline trim.

I might try this on my BSM with Black 22s.
Nice and clean yet classy and sporty.
Great idea.

Thanks! I figured if I didn’t like it it was easy enough to undo. I really do think it adds to a sporty look.

Does it effect the performance of the fog lights?
I'd be interested in a night pic with them turned on....

It does affect the performance, there’s no way around that. They’re still well visible but obviously not as bright. It’s certainly a form over function choice. I’ll snap some pics tonight and update the post.
