I know it probably was covered in another thread, but whats is the best value black out kit available for the front and back lights of a 2011 Black 2SS. How dificult is it to do yourself?

Good question been wondering that exact thing myself. About the only thing ive decided on is the film instead of lenses

ealfaro · 10-20-2010, 06:40 PM

Ive seen kits for around 100 for all the lights, 75 without the headlights, and 25 for a kit from ebay. No idea what is the best material for value and longevity.

We have a lot of photos and information in our vendor thread here

There is a big variation from the ebay and the like cheapies that are made from 2-3mil (thinner than paper) material made for the inside of a sign and the lighting protection material we use which is 8-10x thicker and a lot easier to work with. Check through the information in our vendor thread and let up know if you have any questions.

I used the cheaper cling on type, they are very black, but hard to keep in place. I just switched to headlight armor and while its not quite as black it is definitely a better product and I think it gives the car a more professional look. I highly recommend them.
