Nice looking ride and love your wheels.
How do you "black out your tail lights."

I just sold my 2006 Vantage and bought a 2009 DB9. I have the black OEM car cover if you are interested. They are $595 new and I'll sell mine for $335, the price of a used cover for the DB9 on EBay.

I had the tail lights painted and sealed from a local custom auto shop. When the brakes are pressed I feel they still show plenty of light through the paint. When I'm driving I'm not worried that someone won't see the brakes.

On a side note I'm thinking about having the interior door handles, and the surround around the gear shifter wrapped in carbon fiber, and the door sills wrapped in either a brushed aluminum look or carbon fiber to match the rest. I can't stand the look of the existing finishes they just look off to me. What are your guys thoughts about this

I did the sills on mine in the brushed alum as suggested by Karl, he's got some pictures posted in the "it's a wrap" thread.

the film I used: http://www.metrorestyling.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=3M1080-BR201

Because the way the grain of the film runs you'll have to order a 60"x36" piece for the sills

I actually think removing the black on the tail lights and going back to red would look much better, and it would match the red calipers for some added contrast
