Hey All,
I have a black film on the fog lights now, but it is old and is starting to look bad. Does anyone have any ideas on how to best black out the front fog lights without risking chipping??

Steve

I don't have a Sol as Spicy.

I would have told my experiences with fog lights blacking if Steve had a sky.

Did you blacken the ones on your Sky? If so, then what method did you use?

damn Kelu...you are not working with us here. i meant to tell Steve your method, not to give him your Sky ehhhh.... GT fog lights.... i know he has a Sol

Kelu · « **Reply #8 on:** May 12, 2011, 03:32:51 PM »

Arabas: The Sol ones are completely different, my experience might not apply at all.

Spicy here is my review:

I don't recommend anybody to open the Sky fog lights without being willing to buy new ones or fabricate new parts.

And now for the WhoringoutObligatoryPic

They don't chip elff?

Brazen17 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 12, 2011, 05:15:15 PM »

I used VHT nightshades.

elff · « **Reply #14 on:** May 12, 2011, 05:30:34 PM »

So far I've had no issues, but chipping is a possibility for anything on the front of the car.
If that happens, I'll just have it redone. I guess I could put a clear bra over the paint if I was really concerned.

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed Kelu, but I think your avatar MAY give them a hint as to what car you own.

DeepBlueGXP · « **Reply #16 on:** May 12, 2011, 08:58:26 PM »

a can of black spray paint.

spicy3480 · « **Reply #17 on:** May 12, 2011, 10:17:21 PM »

Hey Joe...can that be a project for you and me? Ripping the film off my fog lights and respraying them with black and clear coat?

Do you think you are going to be the only person at the mod meet with work to get done?

spicy3480 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 13, 2011, 08:52:44 AM »

HA HA absolutely not.

Critterman · « **Reply #20 on:** May 13, 2011, 09:00:49 AM »

GJ - you are reading to much in to it. No one said anything about prep work or taping it of. So how long does it take to grab a can of black spray paint, hit spicy's lights with a couple of blasts and be done?

DickW · « **Reply #21 on:** May 13, 2011, 09:33:12 AM »

Critter, GJ would use pink paint. He wants them BLACKED out not PINKED out.

DeepBlueGXP · « **Reply #22 on:** May 13, 2011, 10:04:15 AM »

haha, sure but we'll have to use spray can clear

spicy3480 · « **Reply #23 on:** May 13, 2011, 11:47:19 AM »

That's not a problem...thanks Joe...should I pick up the paint before hand or can we get it near you? What should we use? VHT Niteshades?
