jeremy Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 I apologize in advance for the dirty car ..but I just wanted to post some quick pics for your guys' input.. Quote
Robby1870 Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 Its too monochromatic up front. The white/clear headlights give contrast and brings out the lines in the front grill. At a glance it looks like a black blob up front, JMO Quote

At a glance it looks like a black blob up front, JMO ....interesting....I want to make the whole thing black, remove the pinstripe, 5% tint all around, black tails/reverse bar and shave all the emblems....

GnatGoSplat Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 Are they flat black? Flat against the headlights, or flush with the hood? Hard to tell in those pics. I saw someone had made custom covers once that were flush with the hood. Didn't look too bad, but I don't plan on doing it. Quote

I saw someone had made custom covers once that were flush with the hood. Didn't look too bad, but I don't plan on doing it. they are flush with the hood and are tinted glass.....they didn't turn out to bad, I will perfect them once it gets warmer outside, then I will take a lot better pics to show better detail...

maybe2fast Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 I like the Lumina with Headlight covers (note below) Quote
rudefyet Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 cover up those ugly yellow corner lenses and you'll be good Quote
5speedz34 Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 To dark for me, makes it look like night rider. Quote
jeremy Posted March 15, 2004 Author Report Posted March 15, 2004 Looks badass with the parking/fog lights turned on. I'd never go 5% tint thats way too damn dark. Cool for looks but sucks for driving. 20% is good. they would come off at night....even the GTS ones make the lights too dark to see while driving.... Quote
jeremy Posted March 15, 2004 Author Report Posted March 15, 2004 cover up those ugly yellow corner lenses and you'll be good I need to get some "nightshades" to do that and black out the tail... Quote
regalized Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 i think it looks good, if i had a black car, i would do the same thing and make it all blacked out, nice job! Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 they would come off at night....even the GTS ones make the lights too dark to see while driving.... Heheh, I have some headlight covers for my TGP, but never used them. Tinted headlight covers are too much trouble for the lazy. Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 looks mean as hell! Do the corners next! I love it! Quote
Heza Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 i think it looks good. i think that when i put blackouts on my white GTP, itll look better though. i agree with "monochromatic" isnt always that good looking. but i think on white, the black contrasts nicely. Quote
slick Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 Hmmmm.... Makes me want to put them on my Z. Quote
AWeb80 Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 i think it looks good. i think that when i put blackouts on my white GTP, itll look better though. i agree with "monochromatic" isnt always that good looking. but i think on white, the black contrasts nicely. Exactly my thoughts. Quote
