I used VHT night shades, and Im really happy with how they turned out, unless you wanna send it in and spend like $100 for someone to do it.

 

Or just slap on some covers, this way if you get pulled over for it, you can just take the covers off / if you don't want it blacked out at night

 

I personally used niteshade + auto clear coat on the tails of my old GTP. IMO, thats about the only permanent way to do it nicely. I added a clear layer over the top because I got the thickness niteshade I wanted (to get the darkness I wanted) and then did the clear, so I could wet sand and buff it to be as shiney as the paint (and so I could rebuff it if it got scuffed up without worrying about altering the darkness of the tinting).

IMO doing something like this to headlights is a bad idea. I'd definitely try and do covers instead.

 

I got covers 'cause I really don't need to get pulled over by the law. Anyway, I can't see with the covers on at night so if I went the nightshade way I'd probably be hitting everything in front of me. It's easier on my insurance, less police pull overs and better on my wallet. (Less premiums from accidents and less tickets)

 

Damn, Enzo!
That picture looks badass!
It looks so much nicer debadged and blacked out.
Too bad i am not willing to part with my "intimidator" badges lol otherwise if it was a regular SS that would be the road i'd take.
Nice photo.

*edit* also, where the hell is your trunk key hole? lol

 

Thanks its behind bondo and paint Started to settle a bit though, ill have to figure that one out.

And definitely dont black out the headlights unless you just go covers.
