I'm not really wanting to buy new headlights, just wanting to know how to black out the inside. I have seen a few people with their trucks like this and just wondering how?

Thanks

The lens needs to be removed, chrome sanded, and then you can paint the inside. Theres a guide to it somewhere around here, I'm sure someone will post it up soon!

and just to be sure, you are not talking about tinting the inside of the lens are you?

^^ This. It's WAY easier. Or just have him do it to a set of new lights so you don't have to worry about a foggy lens.

I have these exact lights, how much would it be to have them smoked/tinted also? Would it be cheaper if I had the tails done also?

I don't tint the outer lens. If you already have blacked out inners - then grab some lamin-x for the outsides. :birgits_tiredcoffee
