Default Blackout Bumper lights

hello,
My friend told me to black out the front bumper lights. I'm going to black out the window trim, what do you think of his suggestion? Can someone Photoshop it for me. Thank you

do them both, it will look intense. I blacked out my sidemarkers a while ago and I love it





I also used to have black window trim, but then removed it, and now I'm really thinking of blacking it again as soon as it stops being 0 degrees outside

hahah they love it at inspection...I passed NYS inspection with them blacked out last august. :S they don't work anyway, there arent even any bulbs in there lol


Hass, I used a black tint spray and sprayed them on the orange side. Came out pretty well, also I took them out first and sanded the TOYOTA + lettering down so that the lettering was no longer bumpy.

that sucks man!! my headlights are pretty blue (not HID, but rather a bright white Luminecs bulb with a hint of blue) and I passed just fine. My city lights don't work either.

They did however refuse to pass me with my blacked out tail lights, which I had to make red again.
