thats good, well at least you can still see them. They look ok against the dark grey colour of your car, but personally wouldve went with fairlane clearies just to be safe

Looks good man, the side repeaters came out nice!! Lol ive been hunting around all day for that vht niteshade stuff to tint my rears as well, just so happened to find out that no one in the country stocks it cause it's illegal :x :lol: ended up getting some purple window stain spray, closest thing to black..

What stuff are you using? Im guessing its the vht niteshades stuff, is it sort of like a purple-ish spray or is more of a black? Im hoping this purple stain stuff will work :roll:

i just brought one 283g can of nite shades and have done my side repeaters blackened..bit more than one coat on tailights...and still enough to do at least another two cars...my mate wants me to do his vl wagon..poor choice of car. but it does do good burnouts :p

Might have a go at asking nicely mid next week, repco didnt know what i was on about, supercheap was good and gave me a straight answer.. I got another place in mind though so hopefully they can get it in for me.. Lol these cans i bought from bunnings are 150g, they only had 2 left so i thought i better take 'em just incase these become illegal too :lol: :lol:

So whats this dark theme you're going for? Is it just blacked out lights or is the whole car gonna be like a "black on black" sorta thing? :P Haha im in the middle of thinking about doing a dark theme, just need a better choice of dark rims other than stockies lol

Well. Im getting the retinted to 20% its on 35 atm. Getting black number plates. And when i put stockies on they will be resprayed pitch black. Going to put the bonnet ornament either a few shades darker or few shades lighter than current car colour. And whatever else i can think of. And then when you step into the car its all blue!...floor neons. Dash lights. Trip computer. And i just done my climate control blue! And going to put in blue lights in my roof lights if i find some. And for the dark theme im going to get all new door rubbers and get sprayed black to blend in with the tint. And i might do i little light light coat of night shades on my headlights. But thats after a do i photoshop job to see if it looks any good. But i most likely wont as ill lose light area and it will look s**t. Unless theses a way to do it like the bf where the inside of light is darkened....any other ideas for dark exterior theme?
