Help on Blacking out my explorer

[jremington59]

I bought these smoked taillights for 130 dollars for mine. I've been looking for custom headlights but haven't found anything that I really like a lot.

you could also paint the emblem black to match

so you used the spray liner stuff on everything?

Pretty much. Everything except the trim piece over the hatch handle; I used duplicolor gloss black + a few coats of clear.

@theSpoon: I messed around with my ford emblem a bit and tried to take out the blue oval insert. I hoped that the ford emblem was embossed behind it but it was just flat. So I tried smoking it with VHT but it came out too dark and is barely legible
[edit] ooh, I just looked at the link you posted. I only pulled away one edge of the insert to get a peek so I didn't really get a look at the backside of it. I will have to try this again. Thanks! [/edit]
