blacked out
i know most people will probably be against this, but i blacked out all my lights this weekend.
heres a shot of the front, i dont have a good shot of the back but its blacked out too.
next to come is getting all chrome on the car painted black to match. then eventually full black wheels.

Should've just painted the chrome housing instead. Form and function.

professional bro... haha i rather pay to get it done right then do it my self and screw it up... i only tint it lightly so it still has that OEM look in the rear but u know its smoked a bit so it stands out

this is less risky compared to painting the chrome housing

I'll take the tradeoff of getting my hands dirty vice worrying about not being able to see at night.
