If you can use a spray can, you can use Night Shades. I did 3-4 coats on my side markers (I already had covers on my taillights) and the light still shines through fine. If you ever decide you don't want the black anymore, there's always paint thinner.

You can buy Niteshades online from a site sponsor:

i do have the stock taillights that i could use while the euro taillights get Nightshaded lol, i like how the euros light up just getting tired of the look and being called ricey. plus i think blacked out taillights and berger panel will look awsome together.

I have AVS, they are plenty dark for me, let a lot of light shine through. And my tail lights have not melted from them. Got mine at Summit for 40 bucks or something, I'm getting the headlights eventually as well. The only thing I don't like is the white AvS thing but it kinda matches the chrome on my car so it looks alright.

it took about a year and a half for mine to melt...you should definately check on a regular basis because mine just suddenly started to melt one day
