Rep Power: 355 um, my car is silver but... I have heard that the most common choises are a Krylon(sp?) flat black plastic paint or shiney... BBQ grill coating... or black primer.... I personaly used nightshades but after the fact thought that truck bed lining spray may be intresting... It would kinda give it an OE look since it is textured... dont know, just some ideas for ya!

Rep Power: 0 i dont have any pics of mine online but i used to have cleared oem lights, black housing angel eyes and now i switched to blacked out oem and they by far look the best! i used a high temp resistant gloss black paint but u can go with flat black too.
make sure to keep the orange insert in cause it looks way better. i also blacked out everything excpet for the headlight blub area cause i liked that look the best. sorry i dont have any pics for you but i hope this helps...

Rep Power: 267 ^ Looks good
Yea Mike, I think you should leave the amber in and also leave the chrome parts behind the amber chrome cuz it'll make the amber brighter which looks good imo

Rep Power: 309 /\ Nah man I painted the whole peice that comes apart black and installed the reflector... The amber wasnt as bright cause there was no reflection but it looked alot better and was easier than trying to tape it off....
