Im looking to black out my tail lights this weekend and was wondering if any guys have any tips to which way is the easiest but best at the same time. Ive heard alot of methods to do it such as spray paint and bake, tint, tail light covers ($$$), and a hole new tail light...which one is the easiest way to do this?

 

1. wash them
2. grey scuff them with a cleaner
3. wetsand with 1000
4. wash again with a cleaner
5. let them dry
6. basecoat black with a clear tint - similiar to a candy
7. clear

when you do your basecoat, the amount you put determines how dark it is. If you want to still be light, just do a couple of coats. if you want it dark, load it up in small amount.

 

i happened to have a set for sale if you wanna just buy some already done..$100 shipped..look up my thread in classifieds i have a pic there..i am gonna get some pics of the lights by themselves up right now.

 

I have an 05 hemi...they wouldnt fit right?

 

I've done a few with rattle can, but if i were to do it over, i would just get them professionaly done, and be done with it. Plus they look better too.

 

Yea I went to a couple people today and I think im going to go ahead and pay somone to do it professionaly so I can be for sure they will look good...thanks man

 

np. Post up some pics when you get em back.

 

not to hijack but how do you guys think tinted tail light's would look on a light blue truck?

btw my windows are slightly tinted (35%)

 

bump!!!!!

 

eehh it might look alright...i just sold mine, tired of CHPs usin that as an excuse to pull me over. Bastards.
