Cadillac CTS-V - black/murdered V1's got any pics?

Ok, so I am in the process of blacking/murdering out my V. Im sold as far as what I'm doing in the front (all black except for the emblem and headlights-DUH), however I'm on the fence about what to do with the rear. I kinda like how the red tail lights break it up, but would like to see how it would look first. I'm thinking of doing the reverse lenses, and then tapeing off the 3rd brake light so the emblem and just the light strip would be left. Im using the spray on tint so once its there its there. Reversing the process, if need be, sucks. So lets see some (always in need of a wash) black V's! :cool:

I'll get more photos up

I'll post pics of my old car shortly. Was completely murdered out. I had just the red tails on it too in a couple pics. Looks good with the tails red but I vote completely murdered if ur gonna do it.

I had tinted tails. To me it looks better with red tails.

how i'd do a blacked out V

The two red tails really do look good. I like it all black if everything else is done but the red tails add a little contrast. Not to mention... Ur taillights will be more visible.

I think I'm going to black out that middle brake light and leave my red tails the way they are

That's how mine was done. I'll post pics. Just haven't been back home yet and they are on my computer

You bought Keiths V, thats a nice one how you liking it?

Here's mine

Here's mine

Nice looking Vette ya got there, too. :usa:

I have mine blacked out (wouldn't neccessarily call it "murdered"). I plasti-dipped the grilles minus emblem, tinted the parking, marker & tail lights as well as the high mount. My wheels are gunmetal instead of black. Still gonna tint the reverse lenses then wet sand them all. Then gonna plasti-dip just a couple other things. No good pics or I would post.

Here is mine, only one I have of it, since I took the tint off of the reverse lights, I can get a better pic tomorrow if you want.

My plan is to keep my tail lights stock. And do the mix of black and clear coat on the 3rd brake light.

I dont want to go FULL knight Rider. and with the wheels and everything else. It would just be too much black.

I know the rear is dirty. But the reverse lights blacked out was enough for me.
