I think it looks good, and I like the black out look with out having to get real blackouts. I just love the stock grids too much though
You had to create a new s/n to attach the pics.
You had to create a new s/n to attach the pics. Looks kinda like SSaudio's taillights but with a clear reverse, I think it looks better with the reverse being clear then all black IMO, I say do it as long as when you apply the brakes or use your turn signal it comes out red.
LOL..YOU KNOW IM JUST PLAYEN WIT YOU DOGG...lol...hes my bro everybody so dont think im really dissing him..Yea i think ill get that.if you tell me how to make them or just get the gto black outs!...

That looks really really cool. But I'm afraid if you did that, your car would just be too cool, and it would be unfair to the rest of us!

Well it looks good, but can it be done right? Has anyone ever used that headlight spray that blacks things out? Im not sure what it is called, but you should get what im sayin. Would that stuff work? If so, I just might try it!

The stuff is called VHT nightshades. Summit sells it for $7 a can (or so).
Yes the lights will still be red and amber, even dimmed out white if you do the reverse lights.
Is it legal? I don't know, check your local laws.

I tried some photoshoping ideas for my stock base taillights and they all looked kind of cheesy, like those taillight and headlight masks. The stock lights looked better.
In your case, I would black out all the lights or just leave them stock, no variations in between.

Ive seen some cool ones done with the third brake light but my favorite was a bowtie. He took the cover off. masked off a bowtie on the inside of it and painted the rest all black and when the paint dried he peeled the tape off and when he now hits the brakes it looks cool, all you can see is the bowtie.
