Tint and LEDs put on/in the LS; Before/Afters

[Andrizzle 10+ year member]

This is pasted from a thread on my car-specific forum (lincoln LS) so some of the content doesn't pertain to here, but I thought I would show you guys too.

Took the time to make a decent thread in case anyone ever searches for an LED/Stock comparison. Also I got my car tinted this morning. Let me know what you think about these mods.

No Tint Before //// 5% Tint After

Finally got some pics from my lights/LED Swap. USPS Lost my package and it took nearly 3 weeks to get them. Finally put them in today. Also I took before and afters because when I was planning to do this mod I looked for some, but could not find any. My camera isn't very special so the quality isn't too good, but I did my best to show the stock lights versus the LED lights. Let me point out though, the camera had a hard time picking up the LEDs, in every single case of comparison in-person, the LEDs win no question.

Stock Lighting Before //// LED SuperWhites After

Yes sir it does.

Thanks for the comment guys. Yea TurdFurgeson, it is really a great car, it is tons of fun to drive and I dunno why, but everyone comments on it and looks @ it. The tint guys couldn't believe how good it looked, they were all like 'omg black on black is so badass' //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

But yea I need to polish it, just waiting on more money for a buffer and everything. (Notice swirl marks by license plate)

Since you got the factory HID's id go and tint the windshield. Throw like 30-35% on the windshield then it will look real hard!@

Yea those are stock wheels. My original plans for this car was to go black everything with red accents, including flat black rims with a red lip. Since having the car, I dunno wut to do anymore, the chrome stockers look so good on it, especially with the grill I added.

Also I asked them to do the windshield but they wouldn't do it unless I paid them 120 cash under the table just for the windshield or had a doctor waiver thing. But I am tight on cash so I couldn't afford windshield anyways. Maybe someday when I have money to risk the ticket lol.

Here's the grill that accents the wheels so well.

And here is my concept LS I did before actually owning an LS:
