yes!

 

This is not a big deal. Its your car, do what ever you like...or nothing at all.

 

I have a V12 Vantage in Fire Red and have thought about blacking out the tail lights too. I think it would look very menacing and that's a look I like.
It would probably look great on Tungsten Silver as well. I say go for it!

I am planning to de-chrome the entire car, so the black tail light would then fit nicely. First step has already been taken : replace the chrome side strakes with the carbon fibre ones:

Part of me agrees with you guys...but can you honestly say this looks "cheap" or "cheesy"??

 

I wouldn't go as far as cheap or cheesy, but IMO, cheapened. Regardless, looks like you really want to do this mod. If that's the case, go for it. It's your car after all.

 

Nope, I think it looks brutal!

Not a big fan of 3rd party rims though...

 

Brutal indeed. Only difference, I would just paint my stock rims and tint the windows.

 

Ahhh I remember that car and that trip. Truly fantastic!!!



That was not my favourite wheel/finish on that car though. I think the blacked out tails can look good on certain cars/colours but you really have to go the whole hog and do the exhaust tips + other trim as well.

 

clear tail lights or leave it original

 

Akallday,

Take a look at these pics:

As Stuart said, it can look good depending on the color of your car; plus, if you're gong to black out your tail lights, you should probably do the side markers and rear reflectors as well.
