Here is mine, but they are VHT nite shaded & cleared. It wasn't hard & you can also do the side markers with it.

That looks great man, it's the first time I've seen them VHT'd with clear reverse lights.

VHT tails FTL... I like the black outs better. A bit more money, but worth it. With LS1 tails you can't get rid of the ugly reverse light with vht, with a black out you can. I also like the fact that I can take mine off when ever I want

Thats what I was shootin for. I wanted it to look different. I also like the idea of being able to see good when in reverse at night but still have the actual tail lights blacked out.

on 98+ the tails are sexy, why would you cover it up? I think spuds and the silver vert are the only ones that look good with black outs

I used 2 cans of VHT & followed the directions on the can. Then I used Duplicolor SUV automotive clearcoat. I put down 5 coats of that. It will look better after the entire car gets buffed out.

This looks pritty good, It's still a hard decision for me! The lights match the WS.6 emblem in the back right now. If I did the blackouts I'd get the black WS.6 badge to match'em. Still not sure though, what would you guys do???
