black out look..anything other than niteshades..i was going to use touch up

paint but that would make the lights completly black. please suggest

I believe irish44j just used a light coat of black spray paint to tint his corners. I think someone has used a Testor's color also.

Night Shades is hard to find at a retail store. I had to get mine on line, but it works well.

Go to a store that sells model or R/C cars, they should have lens tint that works just as well as NightShades.

black spray paint would work without making it so no light shows through?
