BUMP!

Thinking about tinting my tails and painting my rear valence, what do you all think about that?

 

LBC77's TB coupe

 

Think it'd look nice.. I have a black diffuser on my CS rear, and my tails are tinted (overlays)..

 

New shoot today..

 

No need to photoshop what it will look like, there are plenty of cars in this thread with that done, you can see what it truely will look like

 

Here's a simple look of mine.. Black tint, and black difuser on a CS rear, but basically the same idea.

 

i have smoked tails with a black diffuser also. i will get better pics up as soon as i get some better weather. but here are 2 quick G1 pics...

 

Is your grill flat or gloss black? What about your headlights, gloss or flat black?

Can you please post more pics of the front? I just painted my grill and I need to do my headlights.

 

Doesn't look like his headlights are painted at all..

 

You are right I guess looked at it quickly and thought they were darker.

 

my grill is flat black with a gloss black mt fuji. my headlights are stock as of right now. kinda sketched out on baking them cuz i head the non projector headlights tend to leak or crack after taken apart. dont wanna risk it. waitin 2 get some more money to have iron_mike do a set of 06 projectors for me. and sorry but i dont have any more pics of my car yet. waitin for the weather to get better around here.

 

1. They're going to crack anyway.. It's just a matter of time w/ the OEM HID Reflectors.. Mine eventually cracked as well. I believe it's from the fact that the Reflectors actually heat up the housings by shining the light directly on them, causing them to expand, and then when they cool the housings contract rapidly. I believe that's why they went to Projectors where the heat is displaced out, away from the housings. I'd just say get the projectors for functionality reasons..

2. I'd be a little leary of Iron_Mike modding some lights for you w/ the issues people have been having lately. Do a search, I'm not going to badmouth anyone because it didn't happen to me personally. Just saying do some research first.

 

^^in that case. i'll prob just end up gettin some o6 projectors cuz my headlights right now is getting that ugly haze on them. hopefully i'll get to baking them and taking them apart to paint the housing

 

That's what I did (mine are TB to match the car).. Got some brand new 06 projectors from Tony@Riverside (he's a sponsor on here). I didn't even put my projectors in till they were painted.. LOVE the way they turned out.

 

Has anyone seen a TB with a matte black roof?

Opinions of it in a coupe with matte black headlights, diffuser, grill and rims?
