I was wondering what purpose the reflectors/red plastic covers have on the rear bumper. Could I smoke these real dark and they still be legal. I posted a somewhat junky shot of them.

All vehicles are required to have rear reflectors for safety reasons. Guess you could tint them but I'm not sure why you would want to.barn07 said:I was wondering what purpose the reflectors/red plastic covers have on the rear bumper.

That is a technicality which requires explanation.Black Granite LTZ said:All vehicles are required to have rear reflectors for safety reasons. Guess you could tint them but I'm not sure why you would want to.

For instance...not every vehicle has a pair of separate reflectors like the NOX
They can be built into the taillamp housings for instance
But if the shape and design of said housing does not facilitate reflectors built to code...well then...
You get the Fugly NOX style...which could be equipped with bulbs to illuminate if an enterprising Modder was motivated enough
well, I don't see them as ugly in any way but we all have different tastes. How about wiring them up as rear fog lamps? Those are required in Europe and I would assume the export versions get them. (come to think of it I don't even know if they export the Nox and Terrain).
Its funny you say that because I wouldn't have even known that they were there if it wasn't for this thread hahabarn07 said:I honestly didn't even notice they were there until one day they caught my eye. I think I'll just leave them as is...for now at least
