got my tail lights done, they are painted with clear coat, tinted with black. Bright as h3ll at night, and I personally think they look cleaner on a car then the stick on black outs, what do you guys think?

 

Looks pretty good. I like becaise it is different!! Great looking car.

 

Not to sound like an a$$, they do look nice, but I do think the idea would work better (including if blackouts were used) if there weren't black stripes on the car. The lights and stripes seem to blend together.

 

I think it rocks.

 

You should post night pictures.

 

theres just somthing about them that doesn't seem right...they look sorta like LEGO blocks...i prefer the smooth look of blackout covers... but it's definatly different

 

did u do it yourself? how did u do that???? i want to do mine in red;... but i have no clue how?

 

Black out the Headlight pockets!@#$!@#$!@#

 

booyah

 

Looks ok, can you get any pics of maybe the whole car in the pic with the tails.

That's my main complaint about your pics, you have such a nice car, and you never show a whole shot.

 

i say where the stripe on the car meets the lights change the strip color from black to red to contrast the paint scheme. i think that would look pretty cool and very original

 

wow, i like that

 

Did they paint your tips?

 

I like them. Since you say they are bright at night--I would like to see proof.

 

I have niteshade on the front and it shines completely thru. So much, that you can tell the lenses are discolored like most old ones. I had some pics at nite, but lost them.

 

Thanks Mark.

 

Looks alright. One thing I noticed from the pic is your window tint on the hatch. Is that in strips? If so, take it to a place that does it all in one sheet, it will look so much better

 

looks real good, black outs would kinda have the same effect..

but what you did looks better!

 

They look pretty good, but I think the old Z28/RS taillights look better tinted. Just something about the grid pattern...

 

where I live, there's only one guy that tints, and thats the way he does it, I know it sucks, but I have to live with it I guess.

 

I'm still trying to figure out what year that car is??? Is it a 25th Anniversary or a 1991???

Looks nice nonetheless, let's see some night pics....

 

Well he dose have the 25th Aniv, badge on.

 

It's advertised for sale as a 1991 so that's why i'm confused?

 

oh, i get it know. My bad

 

Now if you paint those headlight pockets, the car will be sweet.

 

Not bad...I think I would have went with the black-outs instead. But overall, looks professional. I would like to see some night shots.

 

Ya, do a day and night shot comperision

 

I think the tailights look pretty cool, I like that better than those cheap tailight covers!

 

Me too , and even better it cant be stolen as easy as the covers

 

you mean something like this

 

what were these tail lights painted with?

 

If you mean mine, Transparent Candy Apple Red spraypaint, can't remember what brand I used.

 

Testors... You can get it at Wal-Mart if you want.....

 

yeah I think Testors is what I used, had just enough in the can too.

 

:: chant :: Night shots, night shots, night shots, night shots......

 

I want night shots too.

 

LET ME SEE SOME DAMMN NIGHT SHOTS!

 

The only reason I car about a night shot is because most people I know with any kind of black out gets hassled by the police because the lights are not bright enough.

 

Does that paint job last long?

 

Had it like that for about a month now, and no signs of it coming off. I'm gonna probably get them cleared when I get my car painted anyways.

 

I have blackout and and you can accually see the lights better at night than in the day. There really isn't a problem seeing the lights but the cops can still harasse you if the want. I haven't had any problems with the cops thought.

 

not bad.

i am gonna attempt to make my own taillight covers :P

-fly

bub
