Looks great man i want to black out the tail lights aswell but insted of using the spray i wanted to use window tint. So if i get tired of them i can just peel them off. Ive seen it done on other trucks and looks pretty good.

that looks real dark...i would suggest getting brighter bulbs. Would suck to get rear ended in the daytime because your brake lights weren't visable

I agree with some brighter bulbs or adding a light bar. Don't get me wrong it looks great just don't want to risk getting rear ended or ticketed even.

agree, here in Oklahoma, if they are that dark and you get rearended, your the one getting the ticket. (may not get insurance to cover it)

How does your lights look illuminated in the day light and at night. I have oem led and wanted smoked but worried about the visibility. I had to ditch my recons because of dash messenge and fast blink in the dash cluster.
