Best Blackout Products

I have searched and found tons of different information about this. I want to blackout my two bowties and taillights. What do you recommend as the best products to buy and why?

I took mine to my bowties and tail light bezels to my painter and had them done...as for my tail lights I used headlight armor and have been very happy with it.

Headlight Armor for the lights and any precut vinyl on ebay or through the vendors would work for the bowties

I have heard that the vinyl for the bowties is a PITA from a couple of people. Anyone have positive experience for the vinyl?

If you want vinyl I used Asthetic Creations for mine... custom decepticon ones... easily installed and no problems. But I eventually went with painted custom ones from Garyz

The back bowtie is easy but the front is tricky. I have 3M Di Noc Carbon Fiber vinyl on mine. It is a little thicker so I did not get any bubbles.

I have vinyl for my bowties in which I got from a local sign shop for $5 for about 2x2ft. Works great and have had no problems what's so ever. For my tail lights I have the static cling which can be purchased here: http://camarodecalstore.com/TAIL-LIG...TS-TLB-110.htm
It works great and looks amazing! Easy to install too. Here is what they look like on my car. Hope you like it, tell me what you think.
