Default Black out rear tails?

I'm thinking of blacking out the rear lights and possibly the front? i did it to my supra and it looked, in my opinion, amazing... this could be a "no no" for sc's but just wondering what you all thought on that as well.....

i love blacked out tails on black cars, but not so much on any other color..however cleared out tails on a white car would look great IMO..

Here is a pic of my rear blacked out. Mind you I did not black out my front since I think the front looks good just the way it is. Only thing you need to put in the front are the clear sidemarkers IMO.

depends on the car IMO,

no offense to P.R.S.22, I don't think it looks good on his car as compared to milts where it just looks amazing.

Oh I agree it looks 1000X better on milts then on mine. Just trying to go for a black/white theme so this was one of the things I wanted in black.

personally I like it on P.R.S.22's car because it goes well with the black badges. Looks super clean with really dark tint IMO

Haha...well I'm glad some people like it on mine. Like I said I think it goes well with my car since I have pretty much just black and white on my car with just a few hints of chrome and nothing else which is just the way I want it. Post some pics when your done so we can see how it looks on your ride. Remember......do what makes you happy because in the end your the one that owns it and looks at it the most.

ya man too true. i have a friend that has a 05 BMW and he just got a carbon hood for it and didnt paint it. to me that looks sick and to him too but everywhere he goes with the car (bmw car meets) he catches ***** for it because its ricy or a "no no" or something. and so i was just seeing how popular it was that people do it.

Personally i love it so im doing it but i just though i should know to expect crap for it or not haha

They look good on some cars. SCs have big taillights. I'd leave them alone. I just dont like the unwanted attention from the Feds.
