lamin-X Smoke Tones.

I want to see the difference of their three tones they have on three minis. I want to get a good idea of how dark i want mine, also, mention how much trouble you have with the cops having smoked out tail lights.http://www.lamin-x.com/Mini-Cooper-0.../mn205.htmtell me what you have- gunsmoke, smoke, or charcoal. and post pics please =] thank you!

I believe i had mine Gunsmoked, thats the lightest dark they had. hahah and i liked them, i just recently changed them to LED taillight from Mossmini.

and i had no problem with the cops hahah in fact, they just look at me and gives me the thumbs up =P! just kidding on the last part hahaha but yeah, no trouble at all and they're the perfect darkness for me.

Dont go with charcoal, that would definately asking for trouble with the cops

pixs are in my gallery

I had the darkest one that they made on my lights before, and I never had any issues with the law. I'd say choose based off the color of your car. I think the lighter might look better on your car than a really dark black.
