i guess melt answered that for me =)

yea its the same as the clearing out the headlights, just paint the housing black.

as for the tail lights, side markers, corners, i used some smoke spray from your local hobby shop and just do light coats over it, the thing is....i went heavy on the coating,so they came out a lil darker. Im happy with them. after u are done spray them down with clear coat, three coats of each one. and you're done =)

FCUKEN SICK!!! I'm all jealous now.. haha. I gotta get mine soon now. lol. But yea, no money still. By the way, did you try putting on the black corners too? How'd it look? If you haven't, can you try? and show me how it is. Cuz I dunno wheather to do what you have now, or put the whole black housing (4 pieces).
