I was thinking about painting my car black, tinting all the windows 20% tint, getting tinted headlight and tail light covers, and a set of nice chrome rims

anyone tried it or tried it with another dark color?

I wonder if the owner of that car purchased the light covers, or actually just put some tint on it. Hmmm... im gonna try it. My car is all black... Although if anyone knows where i can buy the light covers PLEASE post up. tx

The front ones are the smoke covers, but it looks like the back ones are tinted.

I remember the owner of that posting those awhile ago... the headlights are just smoked GTS covers, and the tails were tinted with NightShade or something like that.

You can pick it up and G.I Joe's if you have them where you live, that's where I got it when I did mine, turned out great. Buy at least two bottles.

Here are a couple pics, they aren't very good though, I'll have to take more in better light and angles. After I tinted them I put some Mystic paint on there, so you get that green and purple color depending on the angle. Straight on though they pretty much look black

Now I just have to tint the windows, lower and get rims. Give it a month or two.

It's nice looking Damian.

:tup: If you were to put some sort of clear coat on it, would it give it more of a sheen to it? I kind of want mine to look like the first guys if I do mine at all in that it has a lot of shine to the black. His also seems a bit more transparent in color, but maybe that's just the picture quality. Though yours look really nice too.

Yea I clearcoated the living daylights out of them, but then I ran out. . . so I think I'm gonna wash them and do it again, just for more sheen. They're not as transparent because of the Mystic paint, but they look badass at night, I'll take some tonight and post them.
