Tail light question

I know 90% of hte people around here think altezza tail lights are stupid. Im beginning to come around to that line of thinking myself. I also see alot of people blackin out their stock tails. what about blackin out a set of altezzas? Would that still earn constant "rice" comments, or do you guys think that might be an alright way to go?

i had blacked out altezzas at one point. they looked great on my car because my red tails are the only part that isn't black or silver. i only had them for 1 month then got rid of them for 04 tails because they suck and started to fog on me.

i did it with a set of chrome altezzas i had. was gonna do a DIY on it, but it's pretty much the same as the one for the headlights. 3 coats of Krylon Fusion ( Gloss finish) and 2 coats of clear. Used clear tub and tile sealer to seal the lenses back up. been on for about a month now and no fog as of yet

pm your email and I can send some pics if ya want..on and off the car
