i just got done with my car and the last thing i want to do is paint my yellow side lights black, i have the lights disconnected, i think it would look better black since everything i have everything blacked out

 

forgot the pic

 

one more pic

 

i am thinking about doing something similar to mine and what i want to know is who thinks it would be better to just use nightshade and take like 30 min or actaully shave the lights out and go that route

 

that is a very very very good looking car!

 

I'd black it out or go with a clear lens...

 

clear side lenses look bitchin on black cars.

thanks

 

Personally I'd go with clear lenses. I know it goes against the scorched-earth-all-black paint scheme....but I still think it'd look great.

 

where can you get the clear sidelights and how much?

 

I bought mine on ebay for $30 +s/h ... cheapest I could find. If your interested I can probably still pull up the guys user account and pm it to you. He usually has one or two sets for sale at all times.

 

sorry. i think clear sidelights look r!ce. they remind me of clear taillights. I'd just pick up some window tint, cut out a piece, and put it over the blinker. I think it would look better, just like how blackouts look better than clear taillights.

edit: make sure you sand and buff out the numbers on the blinkers.

 

Dude i saw you today, your car is freaking gorgeous we should meet up sometime and cruise.

 

hey you guys are up here... cool.. im in pleasant grove and work in South Jordan if anyone is close..

working on my LT1 intake manifold at the moment so my car is down

 

true some do look like r!ce, but the ones i have have the relector built into them, so they are "clear", but you cant really se the bulb.

thanks

 

hey thanks, we'll have to meet somewhere sometime, well for the clear sidelights could be ok, but not for 30 bucks though, i rather tint them dark or paint them black so there not noticable, i have some extra sidelights sitting around

 

I understand that, though you might be able to find them for around twenty.

As for the absurd comments that it looks Japanese....that's just amusing. In reality, the vast majority of modifications we do to our domestic cars are the exact same things the foriegn car fans do. The only real difference is where the cars are manufactured, the rest is just blinders we put up for our American patriotism.

 

im suprised no on ehas mentioned VHT yet. Go get yourself some "VHT nightshades" from the store. Its like spraypaint, but its tint. Works well and will conform to anything so you wouldnt have to worry about sanding your lenses or anything.

 

here are some pics of tinted sides w/ vht nightshades

 

I think the vht looks good

 

id go with black...paint it with vht

 

black tints wins hands down, looks good on a black car, if i go back in time before my paint job, i would of taken out the lights and covered that hole to make it all clean and smooth, oh well at least i remember to remove the side molding when i painted this time
