They look nice but only really for car shows. Not really safe for driving on public streets with. I have trouble seeing people brake with blacked out headlights using a tint let alone completely blacked out with spray paint thats not meant to be translucent.

The paint used is a clear paint (translucent) with factory color matched paint, used in a spray gun (exactly like you would if you were painting a car)


So when the lights are off, they look exactly like the color of the car... given the right angle.. you can still see the red lights (even when lights are completely off) and when the lights are on, you can see them clearly. Like I said, I know they aren't exactly street legal during the day, but at night, they are clearly visable, and legal to the 500 ft requirement that is NV law.

Lights are completely off in this picture... you can still see the factory red lights under the paint:
