Blackouts (Tail lights) done! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Dave2SSRS · 06-17-2010, 05:22 PM

I put the tail light blackouts on today. I must say... I was skeptical at first how these would turn out but if you spend a little time on them and use the right tools they will turn out GREAT!

Specials tools: Window tint squeegee!

What do you guys think? I always value your opinions.

Looks fantastic.. Love the huge Exhaust Tips !!

I went with the Gun Smoke tint. I have a fear of being rearended and the person hitting me telling LEO that they couldn't see my lights because they were too dark. Decided to rule on the side of caution with this grade. I like the appearance and I think it's just right for me, along with the black bezels and trunk panel black out.
They're still in the curing process but I would imagine a couple more days in this heat and they should be totally perfect!

Holly shit those tips are ginormous. Bet you could fit a Smart car in one of those.

Car looks great dude!! I agree with the others on the bowtie and bezel re-coloring. This is what I did with mine and I think a similar setup would look great on your car.

Thanks Bigwormgraphix! I was at my dealership this morning and they were giving me the thumbs up on the mods and the look I have going on. Said it was tastefully done which is what I'm trying to achieve.
Thanks again for sending the emails of descriptions on the different grades. This Gun Smoke was just what I needed and wanted.

You are oh so right and I was soooo worried when I ordered the kit with the 5" double walled tips. Even just holding them up to the car was scary! LOL! But then, all was well when we installed them.
