Great example of blackouts well done, I heart Spud's car. Ever going to do the spoiler light?

Here is an idea i had for a one-piece blackout:

NOTE: That is an edited image. The one-piece blackout and smoothed bumper are not real.

Hey spuds your car is looking nice, but if I were you I'd blackout the 3rd brake light, put some black decals in the PONTIAC indents and then tint your windows. It would complet the black/white color scheme.

I have rear pontiac fill ins, just old pictures up tehre. I agree the third brake light has to be done, but I wanna fill in the top with bondo to bring it up level with the spoiler and paint that white. I just need time.


thanks for the compliments.

I used VHT Nite Shades to black mine out, I did a write up thats in the hall of fame sticky up top. And if you need any help drop me a PM.

The white bird/ta vinyl are gone now, and the pontiac inlay is black. These are a little old.

No offense, but blackouts remind me of the early '90's.

Dont you LS1 guys have problems with the rear blackouts melting the tail light lens?
I have had to replace 2 sets of tail lights from them melting the brake light section, they actually become concave.
