Default (Pics) My smoked headlights

Thanks to http://www.ricks2k.com/ for the clear strips and Mr. Zipps for making this happen.

If anyone wants their headlights done I recommend you PM Mr Zipps or email him at Mr_Zipps@yahoo.com He painted mine flat black and installed the clear strip, they came out very clean. Heres the pics, tell me what you think.








New tires 285's out back:

Looks REALLY good, but now the turn signal bulbs don't have anything to reflect off of... ? Isn't that kinda a problem, or do you just not really care?

I really like it! How much did it cost you to get it smoked with the clear strip?

Car looks really clean and very nice. I like the headlamps smoked like that. How much did it cost. I am interested in doing that as well. Any information that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yea i was gonna ask the same thing; how the turn signals are (brightness). I'm gonna do the same thing but color match black and with the smoked reflector. I'm just waiting cause i'd like to have LED's put in them. Anyone know who will put them in besides clearcorners? I'd like to keep my arms and legs.

BTW, man, that flat black looks so good on DB!!!

Thanks guys.

The amber light still is pretty bright during the day if pointed right towards it.. doesn't output alot of light because of the reflector, but you can still see it.

Awesome pics Chris. The headlights came out awesome. The blacked out lights make the front end a lot more aggressive.

If anyone is interested please PM me or email me at Mr_Zipps@yahoo.com. The lights are guaranteed to be completely sealed or they will be redone for free.
