[QUOTE=wise;8565483]What did you use to black out your head light and tail light lenses? I really like the contrast. Car looks awesome!

Thanks I think it looks great I just hope the police don't hassle me
I bought the complete blackout kit from Big Worm Graphix.

Anybody use a California duster? Is this hard on the paint? I have used one for years on my first Camaro, but this time I'm a little more "anal".

I used the duster and detail spray on my car. Check out junkman on YouTube for the proper way to use it. I haven't had any issues with it.

Brought it to the coin-op yesterday to do a more thorough wash than my typical rinseless routine (no hoses allowed here in water-restricted LA!). Brought my own wash supplies.

I use a duster to remove top layer of dirt and then i'll detail spray the car, if i'm in a quick rush though I just give it a quick dust.

It can be if you don't use it correctly. Just barely let the tips of the strings touch the paint. A lot of people rest the whole duster on the paint and scratch the hell out of it.
