So I painted pieces of the inside of my headlights black, bought clear corners and kind of 'speckled' them black, cleaned the headlights/foglights, and installed some HID style 8000k headlight and foglight bulbs.
For the tails I put on several coats of niteshade, with several coats of clear over the top. Also put one of those smoked covers on my rear plate just to balance out the darkness. Also shaded the parking lights in the bumper, as well as the brake light in the wing.

In the pictures the car is pretty dirty, but thats all I got right now. Let me know what you think :thumb: or :notgood:

I like it. The headlights sort of look like the 2gb's. That rear plate cover wouldn't last more than a day in this area. I had one on my maxima for about 2 hours before i was pulled over for it.
 
Ok, the car is dirty as hell right now, LOL, but I'll clean up the heads and tails and post better pics.

I've never had a front plate on this car in the 5 years I've owned it, and never been pulled over because of it, so I don't think that they'll care about the cover, LOL.
 
tails looks really nice, i love it
maybe a bit more redish than black but that s just me tho

not rice at all

:thumb:

A better picture of the headlight would let us appreciate more the work you did on them tho...

Oh and you really gotta do something about that antenna :p
Idk if you tought about it but you could also paint your wipers too
 
Tinted lights look real good on most dsm's. Yours is pretty tight good work ;)!
 
I like it....

....but then again, I'm in the process of totally blacking out every lens on my AWD (the car's black as well) with spray tint for the track. I have spare head/taillights if I ever choose to drive the car on the street at night, but for the time being I'm going total "Kit" from Knight Rider.
