Default Blackout Front and Rear Lights-Question

What is everyone doing to black out the front and rear lights? I know there are basically two options: painting and vinyl(sticker). I have heard the best application is the tint sticker style vs painting. I heard painting wears out, while the sticker does not. Also, you can simply remove the sticker if you want to relatively fast.

I personally have not done it but I have a few car enthusiast buddies that have used the PlastiDip smoked look product with great success. Easily removable and you can mask around what you don't want smoked.

Application will all depend on your spraying ability. I dipped my wheels and front grill and you do not want to apply it very heavy on your first two coats as it will run.
