I have factory headlights and taillights on my 05 civic. I was wondering if anyone knew how to smoke out lights to be black. I didnt want to buy new lights. Anyone have any suggestions??

for teh headlights, you take it apart and paint/clear coat the chrome pieces black. for the tail lights you use tinting spray and clear coat it afterwards...Just search..there are many threads on this topic. many!

Do you mean black out or smoke. If you black out... you take em apart and paint the insides. If you want smoke... you put something on the outside (ie. clear coat with black paint mixed in, or get window tinting stuck on em).

I had mine smoked. I went to a local body shop and had them mix clear coat and black base paint and spray mine. One coat in the front and two on the tails.

Black out your headlights and leave your taillights alone :].

Wngman, I've been meaning to ask you...do your foglights work good still since you tinted them and all?

Not as good as they were stock... obviously. But I think I'm going to upgrade my light harnesses for both headlights and fogs, and try to up the amount of light. I haven't decided yet.

Aww okay thought so. Well if you do, let me know how that goes. I want to get fogs and tint them like you did.
