Default Smoking/Tinting Headlights and Taillights?
Just got my windows tinted, like the look. Got 55% in the front (Shop would only do legal) and 15% in the back windows. I've seen smoked on other cars, but never on a dakota. All I've seen is Frenchy's, but I'd rather a cleaner tinted look. Anyone know anything?
