Best Blackout Kit

I am looking for the Best Blackout Light Kit there is, I have had a couple, but I am looking for a complete blackout, as in BLACK, not a smoke. Every picture I look at of a blackout kit looks good. Then I get it and its barely black, its like a light smoke.

So I need you guys to help me find the right BLACKout Kit. It can be either the lenses or a tint lense.

Thanks

The GTS Lense covers will make the thing BLACK. I have the taillight covers and they are pitch black.

Here is a pic of the headlight covers:


and the taillights:

i have used bigwormgraphics blackout kit and headlight armor. i must say, headlight armor is the better buy. why? well because of several reasons: 1) vinyl seems to fit better but not 100% 2) its the darkest ive seen being offered 3) the shipping was very fast and the vinyl itself was meant to protect your lights from road debri(not the big ones though).

When it comes to tint, the percentage represents how much light gets through the film. Lower numbers are darker.

how much will the smoke darken the light from ur headlights... im mean 50% light passing thru, so the headlights will only be half as bright, seems like a waste of HIDs

You can't put tint your front headlight. Well that is if you have the RS. Or HUD's.

Can you take that lettering off of those covers? peel off or something like that? or would that damage the covers?

They come off from my understanding. There was a similiar post to this one... I believe they are stickers that can be put on if you wanted to...
