Headlight/Taillight Question
Hey guys-
I've been searching the board extensively for a week now, finding info on blackening out the headlights/taillights. I'm in the process of purchasing a new GS430, and it will be black with black interior. I am also planning on upgrading to black burl walnut wood on the inside, for the ultimate stealth look, but thats a whole other story.....Anyway, I'd like to know how easy/hard/impossible it is to black out the headlights/taillights, and how good will it look on the black car? Also, with the taillights, would it be a good idea to try and remove the orange part prior to blackening out, so I don't have orange showing through, or what? I know Manaray posted something about blackening out the headlights and removing the orange turn signal part, Manaray are you still doing this? I would be VERY interested once I finally have my car. One last thing.....would I lose light output in ANY way by blackening out the headlights, or especially the taillights? Thanks a lot guys, ANY information will be helpful!
P.S The grill/wheels/emblems will all be black too.....evil is the way to go!

One real quick thing.what is the difference between smoked and black, and if there is, which do you think would look better? I brought this up because I found a site that sells the inner part of the taillamp(the little circles) smoked, and was thinking it would be cool if I could then smoke the outer part too. Thanks a lot!
