Has anyone ever blacked out the part you left silver? (I get the feeling that is a dumb question) I think it might of looked better in your case.

 

I haven't seen a set yet where someone has done that. I think it's for two reasons- one, that silver plastic is opaque. The lines on the outside light up from the projector, and two, because it sets off the other silver parts of the Z nicely. I think without it the lens just sitting in there would be kind of awkward.

 

Looks great! I'm jealous - the 06+ lights look so much better blacked out than mine

 

I agree with cheshirecat79, I don't think it would look right with everything painted black. I had thought about painting them lemans sunset to match the body, but I haven't seen another with them like that and didn't want to be the guinea pig...especially if it didn't turn out too good. Thanks for the comments guys...and girls.

 

I think it'd turn out awesome. but then you didn't want to experiment with my painting skills I guess :/

 

i think something like this



might suit it better.

like i said, i like the way yours turned out, just something doesnt seem to flow right(at least IMO)... but i cant put my finger on it...

 

i was thinking on a black car, what it would look like totally blacked out

 

^^ nah I prefer the other one before that

 

nice!

 

It's not your painting skills but the look in general that I was worried about. The color matched ones that I've seen so far I haven't been too crazy about.

 

Polished wheels perhaps?

 

nice

 

that actually could be it

im still not certain though, i would be interested to see pics of it before the new lenses to see how it changed . but covering up the wheels and looking at it made it look smoother to me

nice catch mountain runner.

 

I'd hoped to get something different other than black to do. like the Laser Red I did today...I think it's awesome!

 

that is sick!

 

Nice "Eyes". The front end looks like a smiling face now.

 

Looks nice but i would love to see them color matched. The new vette looks really nice and also the honda fit with color matched lights.

 

here is what it would look like with the projectors body colored


and blacked out

 

body colored look like a eye patch in orange.

 

Completely blacked out looks like a transformer or something.

I like it.
