Those came out real good! I like that better than the matte black of the plastidip. How did you rough up the tips? Sandpaper?

will do. seeing your trucks pic in your signature makes me think I need to add some niteshade to my fog lamps and reverse lights. Has it affected the output at all?

I used the dark laminex and yes it did affect the light output of the halogen bulbs. I have since put led's in and that has brought it back close to stock light output. Its not much of an issue though because i have HID's in my projectors so seeing is pretty easy lol

true. I've got HIDs in my lows and LEDs in the fogs. I may just try it and see how it is. Worst case, goof-off will take the niteshade right back off lol
