Blackout taillight on Whiteout FR-S
 

After a few hours of hard work, a good friend and I followed the DIY here from the forum and blacked out the chrome on the rear taillights. I think they changed the look on the whiteout completely!

Hopefully it inspires more of you to do this mod. Totally worth every minute.

And now the final pics. I will snap some more in the daylight. I actually finished about an hour ago.

Looks good!! Thinking about doing it now, what did you use to paint them? The black chrome from the DIY? Are you also doing the head lights?

been waiting for someone to do this to a white one. Looks great, would love to see more pics in daylight. I think ill be doing it now.

Juanito,

Yeah, used the shadow paint from the DIY. I like the results. Pics during the day in a few!

Great job, are you going to do the headlights as well?

Probably next week. That project is gonna be a mission!

very nicely done. it looks amazing on white. How many coats of black base did you lay down? I applied 1 light and two thicker ones and mines came out a little darker than yours. It looks almost black on my car though because i have the dgm.

I started with a light coat. Then I used the rest of the can on both tails... 4 or 5 coats.. Lol I'm posting a few new pics in the daylight

looks great. like to see them in person

Where's your shop located?? I'll be more than happy to drop by...

You forgot to remove your plate in the last picture. I only mention it because you removed it in previous photos.

10x better!! :thumbsup:

Hot knifing a brand new cars tails when there are so few replacements to be had still scares the shit outta me.
+10HP for the guy/gal with the guts to do this.
