Don't know if this is the right section. If it isn't please move it.

Me and a buddy of mine picked up a can of black plasti dip and blacked out our cars.

Tell me what you think.

Interesting look... at least it's something new.... I feel like taillights should be shiny though, like vinyls... I have been wanting to see what plasti-dip in the smoke color with the glossifier over it looks like on tails.

Regular black plasti though? Awfully dark for tail lights.....Might be a safety issue. Pics with the lights on? That stuff is dense.


edit: Black emblem is nice though!

My friend at work got a ticket for tinted tails,the cop knew his stuff.cost him 265.00 plus cost and proof there back to original.I probably won't go that route now since I pass Flowery Branch cops every day.

Not too safe bro....tail lights are a bright colour for a reason. Maybe have a corner peeled up just a bit for when the cops pull you over and then before they write you up you can quickly peel it off.

Now that's an idea....

Cop: "Do you know why I pulled you over?"

You: "No."

Cop: "Tinted taillights. They are too dark."

You: "Let me come see." (Pulls plasti-dip off real quick like a magician)

Cop "....I guess I was mistaken. On your way citizen."
