just take out the lense and spray a few light coats of paint on util it looks dark enough for your tastes. and paint remover shouldnt mess up the plastic under the paint. if it does... damn thats some HELLA abbrasive remover..

loox real nice. i got the removable tint spray.. it turns into a film after it dries and u can peel it off later on.. spray with alotta light coats and from various angels to insure smoothness.

Well i got some bad news about my try yesterday... i F-ed up all my lights!!! i dunno how u guys painted them but this blackout paint is soooo damnnnn runnyyy it doesnt hold to it... when i paint it looks nice and then like 2 seconds later it all drips off from the middle where it has a peak to around the edges and forms like a border of paint around the lights... i dunno i was thinking of just painting my front lights black with black glossy spray paint cause the front corner lights are orange all the time and they go all around and just putting back plain red lights on the back... I got a grey lustre car... anyone know if its possible to find paint that color so i can paint my front markers? Hogan what kind of paint did u use to black urs out? oh and anyone know how much new side markers cost for front and back? cause im gonna have to replace mine prob... well let me know.. thanks
