Black Cobras with tinted tails?

[SVTCobraBB]

Hey. Im getting a black Cobra and I wanted to see what blacked out tails and SS inserts looked like on diff year Cobras.

Where can I get tinted tail lights, or tail light covers or what not? I've seen different options. What's the best way to do it? THanks!

 

[ravenknight]

I dont have a cobra but have done all the mods you requested on my black Mach and I love the look it gave the rear end. Bought the ss inserts off ebay from fire and ice motorsports and the tinted overlays from fordpower.net

 

[SVTCobraBB]

Awesome, how do the overlays work? are they blacked out or 50%?

Taillight tints are illegal here :nonono:

 

[Pitrack]

Yeah I think they are illegal in a lot of places. One thing I don't get is here, Omaha NE, you can have the tint on the lights during the day, but not at night. Eventhough it is ten times easier to see the brake lights at night with them on, compared to during they day? who knows.

if you guys wanted to,

mix some black paint in some clear coat.. and spray a few layers on the lenses... it tints it nicely


niteshades spray stuff is pretty much the same thing

That black Cobra is the way I want my backend to look. Does anyone know how he did it? Im seeing there is different options but whats the best looking way? I'd like to find out where he got his overlays, or tint, or however he did it. Thans for all the input guys!

I would just order full tint overlay blackouts from www.ninosport.com

 

[SVTCobraBB]

Does anyone have a picture of this 'layover' ? I was thinking just having a set of tails tinted at a tint shop would work

 

[SVTCobraBB]

That link I posted above, is that what you were looking for? Im not sure if it's a "layover" or not, but it looks pretty sick.

Its mine. Those are some old pics. I will have to get some new ones. I did the www.ninosport.com overlays. The originals, not the new lighter ones. They are so easy to put on. They are thicker so it is almost impossible to get bubbles. I have had them on for over a year now. Absolutely no peeling at all. I treat them just like the paint. I keep wax on them. Ryan

These are well worth the price. Top quality!! Nino would not sell anything less!

 

[SVTCobraBB]

Awesome, you mentioned something about the "originals, not the newer lighter ones"? Are the ones they have lighter? I want to get dark ones like yours.

Is that what you got 03 svtvenom?


~ Also, Anyone got pics of a black 01 with these overlays would help me a lot to see what it would look like. =D

 

[crizzut]

were they 3 seperate peices per light or one peice?

 

[SVTCobraBB]

im thinking the NinoSports ones are one piece each light. From what Im understanding they are somewhat thick so there wont be an bubbles and it wont look tacky.

 

[Niteninja]

Not SS inserts, but painted grey. No overlay's yet but hopefully by summer. :rockon:

here is where i got mine:

I only got the 50% tint because i thought the "blackout" tint would be too dark and i LOVE them. Very easy to install too. The BLACKOUT kit is probably the one you want. Hope this helps

im pretty sure EVERY taillight overlay kit is 3-pieces per light. It definately does not look tacky
