You could always use vinyl to tint the tails. This is what mine look like.

Hell ya man, thanks for the step by steps, looks fairly easy, i think i could pull it off.

Started looking at some black head lights on ebay, not too bad price wise. What do you guys think about the black projector head lights?

Your going to get mixed comments on those, personally, I love mine, enough people on this forum seem to think that if you get them you are for sure going to have bad light output. imo, thats bullsh$&. I love the light output I get with my projectors, some people just think that going with anything other than what THEY went with is going to be crap. On the other hand, some guys on here do have some pretty wicked retrofits. And some of the projector headlights for sale online are way below quality grade, you just have to find the right ones, I don't think I've seen anyone with the same ones that I have, so maybe thats why quite a few other people have had bad experiences with them. These are mine

Thanks man, those look pretty nice, I think I'm gonna paint mine for now, and upgrade my whole head light later on. I personally like the look of them, even if it does degrade your light output. Haha obviously I'm not worried about output if I was talking about tinting them earlier, lol.

Sick, any bubbles when your up close? I couldnt catch any, those look nice, and seem to be a lot easier than spray paint.

I looked for a black truck for about a month, silver was my 2nd choice.
Nice truck man
