also i would liek to know people opinions n weatehr it is better to buy and install black ones or to paint them???
The tail lights are a bit more work since you have to cut them open. There's a couple of members and vendors on the site that offer the service of blacking out your lights for you if you send them in.
DO not follow that DIY for painting tails. It is the worst DIY ever, and shows you exactly where NOT to cut.
Tails are best left to professionals like myself, or follow the instructions I posted in one of the taillight painting threads about the proper place to cut.
Oopsies. I edited my post in case anybody else decides to follow that tutorial. But yeah, this guy is one of the members who does lights and from what i've seen/read, his work his top notch:approve:
cheers guy. the link of that is300 from inspar8r is sick man, that hows i want me heads and tail lights done. they look like! thats the housing painted yea...sating black?
I have black chrome heads and tails and i absolutely love them. My tail lights are the stock black chrome. My headlights are black chrome with M45 projectors. But I would highly recommend you get a professional to do the job for you. Here are some pictures
My fog housings are also black chrome, I love the look
