I GOT MY BLACK HEADLIGHTS TODAY THAT I BOUGHT OFF OF EBAY. INSTALLED THEM AND THEY ARE LOOKING GOOD! WILL HAVE TO WAIT TILL IT GETS DARK TO SEE IF THERES ANY CHANGE TO THE LIGHTING WHILE DRIVING. NOW I NEED TO FIND SOMETHING TO BLACK OUT THE FOGLIGHTS CAUSE IT ISNT MATCHING SO GOOD NOW. ALSO BEEN LOOKING FOR IDEAS ON A NEW BLACKED OUT THIRD BRAKE LIGHT. ANYBODY SEEN ANYTHING OR GOT SOME IDEAS?

 

congrats! cant wait to get mine!

i was thinking about th foglights too... u could maybe put some window tint on them, but they wouldnt be as bright and im not sure which color the light would be...

anybody else have any ideas?

 

THOUGHT ABOUT THE WINDOW TINT THING TOO. I NEVER USE THE FOGLIGHTS SO I REALLY DONT CARE ABOUT THEM BEING DIM. THOSE THINGS HEAT UP PRETTY GOOD WHEN THEY ARE ON SO IM NOT SO SURE WINDOW TINT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA, MIGHT MELT. ANYBODY AGREE OR DISAGREE?

 

relax with the caps.

 

Guys before installing I would get some high temp silicone and use it on the seams. My passenger light leaked and it's on it's way back to the seller right now. So far I have been the only one who has had this problem, so better safe than sorry. I plan on doing this when my other light gets back.

 

first, did you see the huge message thread about the black headlights? anyways, your output at night should be just fine, just like stock.

there are companies like smokenlightz.com that can smoke out your other lights with a transparent paint. I found a place to do my 3rd brake light and tail lights, and I'm just wait for my extra set of tails to come in, then I will send them out next week to have them tinted.

for the foglight, you could have that sprayed lightly as well. or try the window tint. but most likely it will reduce the light output, and probably won't look that great from the outside.

 

i can tint lights too. it will reduce light output some though, that is inevitable

 

Search for Nite Shades spray tint. I used some on my last car and it came out great. Pretty cheap and the results are really good.

AaronG, that looks pretty good

how long ago did u do those and how are they holding up?

i was thinking of doing my tails as well...

 

Smok][n, this is for you.....Here are pics of my tails done with the nite shades tint. I did them back in February, and had my uncle clear coat them (He runs a body shop, so he used the good stuff). But I think they came out awesome, and they are holding up great, have a looksy! Anyone else out there wanna know more too, just send me an email!





These pictures are from back in March, and there are a couple more in my gallery. I think that this couple with the black headlights were the best appearance mods I did to my truck. Hope I could help!

 

heres mine

 

I had mine done for two years and never had any trouble or fading. I'm thinking of doing it to my truck but it is red and i don't know how it would look.

 

Why not do your tail lights in red they also sell red tint think that mught look sweet
