Blackouts or Clear Corners?

[Z71_usmc_rebel]

So im just wandering what yall think i should go with... I have the blackouts taillights on the rear of the truck..now my next small mod is gonna be the corner lights up front..

Should i keep it the same and go with blackouts on the running lights...Or should I go with the clean clear corner look to match some of the chrome on the truck??:neutral:

I would say if your gonna keep the headlights clear, then go with the clear turn/running lights, i think it would look better to have them both match. I love smoked lights but you also gotta think about the (possible) reduced performance of the smoked headlights...Slightly different perspective here, but I have limo tint over the factory tinted back glass and I can't see anything to the rear at night and have to roll my window down or open my door at night to back up and also turning at night is difficult...

yeah i had blackouts on the back of my old chevy and and the windows tinted pretty dark and had the same problem..but im goin forward not backwards..so im cool with not being able to see much to the rear...but with the fronts im thinkin i wanna go with the clears to give it a clean look from the front..I like to have an even flow not to much of one thing...

But i still want yalls input on what ya think i should do!?

i want to clear my headlights so bad.... i dont have the balls to chop up a 2008 headlight tho

[Springthing]

I'm saying let the front match. Let them seeing you coming.... fade to black as you are passing..:rofl:

If you were going for a totally dark look I'd say otherwise, but the truck is so nice and clean (shiny) I'd stick with popping sharp visuals.

I like clear on your truck

Clear! And the headlights are a YOTCH!! I wanted to clear my headlights, but i heard in +07 they changed the headlights so you have to cut them open to get into them. Instead of the older headlights, you can bake and pry apart.

I think full clear up front looks great, with the way that style of truck is set up, with the chrome strip going through the grille, the clear parking/running likes keeps the front matching. That's what i did with my Z. I've got everything chrome up front (grille, emblem, license plate) I've got an ok pic of what my front looks like now. But i'm trying to find a set of parking lights that dont have any yellow in them. All the ones I've found have a bit of yellow reflector in it. So if u do go clear let me know what u use.

Clear for sure.

I wouldn't want to do any mod that would reduce performance :money:.

i would say clear for several resons
a: they look better (in my opinion)
b: black outs are illegal
c: you cant see crap w blackouts in the night time
d: the covers are very easy to steal

What do u mean "bake and pry off" is that allu really have to do for the older trucks ('01)??

[Z71_usmc_rebel]

i have heard that same thing..but i have never tried it..i thought about doing it with the stock parking lights once i put the clear corners on..

Go clear. I have blacked out tail lights on my truck and clear on the front. I'm super happy with it. It looks sick.

Anybody know exactly how to "bake and pry apart"? sounds cheaper and easier to do. I would like to do do it but need to kno exact steps.

thanks
