ya i blacked out my brake light and my tails. My truck is silver though. I used VHT Niteshade and a clear coat. Turned out great. Just take your time and use light coats.

It's has been done, I am not a big fan of it. If you want blacked out corners, just get ya a set of blacked out headlights and corners off ebay or do the headlight mod yourself.

I made myself a decal for my 3rd brake light with the word "Ranger" cut out. It looks blacked out when the light isn't on. I think it'll look good on a white truck.

I'm not a fan of the black tails, but I think the ebay black heads and corners look good.

I think blacked out corners or painted corners like those above look like poo, but that's just me.
