Blacked out headlights and Smoked tails
 
Decided to ditch the tint I had on the front and back for the DIY headlights and smoked tails.

Broz 11-20-2012 10:07 PM

Looks great! But I for one am hoping to go one step further and replace/fill in the huge reflector from the DRL.
Was thinking about one of these retrofits (sorry for the large file) ...

They should make something that replicates the DRL of the GT86.

What did you use to seal them again?

Tt3Sheppard 11-23-2012 04:48 PM

Just looks so damn sexy with that color and the black housing.

Didn't use anything to reseal them just put them back together, baked again to melt the sealant and then pressed and tightened all screws acting as a clamp. Never had issues, and so far no issues with them.
