blackout spray?

is there such thing? want to lose my 95 camaro RED side marker (head and tail black-out covers...it clashes).
it has a bulb in it, not just reflector.
though about just getting $1 can of black paint, but that would probbaly cover it up altogether....

want to do the same with 3rd brake, but don't want it to NOT show thru at all...maybe just a light coat....?

thanx!

It's called Nightshades and it costs about $10 a can.

Yeah, as Ricochet said, you want Nightshades...it's made by VHT. It is a transparent taillight paint. It looks black, but the light can shine through. It's also refered to as "smoking out your lights."

Yeah you just spray VERY light coats, waiting like 5-10 minutes in between, and it turns out really nice. Just make sure you don't put big thick coats on, or spray another coat while the last one is still wet, because then it gets this bubbly/foggy look after it's dry and you can't do a thing about it.

Re: blackout spray?

Another way to tint tailights is to use womens "pantyhose". You just remove tailight and slip pantyhose over whole light and tighten together thne staple together and cut out hole for lightbulb. I've never done it b4 but iv'e seen it done.

Re: blackout spray?

LoL...ricochet did your muffler go on like that intentionally or did it absoloutely have to go on at an angle like that...I kinda like the look and want mine like that but I dont want to pay extra for piping or anything cuz mechanics can be bitches down here.
