I like the look of these blacked out bezels and was wondering what you all thought of a body color matched bezel .. I have been toying with the idea for some time and just would think it looks better ..

Example 1:

one thing you can with the corners is tint them like the bumper lights and your taillights.....thats what i did to match the blacked out bezel

Vancouver_Legend · 03-04-03, 05:14 PM

^ any pics?

is that legal to tint the corner lights?

bootleg · 03-04-03, 05:27 PM

well it probably is illegal....but at night if you shine light on the corners you can still see the orange reflector get all shiny

but if you have clear corners thats illegal too if you dont have any amber...so you might as well tint them anyway

Hey what up "Crazy Cuban" remember me....HOOTERS...

Im thinkin about doing my bezel a dark green. But leaving the WHITE corners alone would look weird...they already look weird stock. What do you all think?

I think a red bezel on your ride would look absolutely awsome. DEF RED.

I like that idea about tinting the corners. You kno anyone in CT who does somethin like that? or if we can do a home-job??

HEY ISN'T THAT THE BACK END OF YOUR LEGEND????? HOW DID THAT GET THERE????

BOOTLEG do you have any pics??????????? pls!

bootleg. the pics are awesome.

Two questions.
1. how did you tint the corners. I want to do this to mine, looks great.
2. also, how did you get the blue in you headlight, I like it.

Great car.

Thanks

i used model masters black window tint and the blue is the LED mod that i got from this forum....if you do a search you should be able to find it...i did the same with the high beam lights but with white

i know this is a pretty old thread but i just tried to paint my bezels on my headlights and it took me 4 hours to take out all the nuts connecting the lights to the frame. but after i got all that done, turns out the lights cant even come out. i was wondering how some people got their headlights out? and i could use help with the bumper lights also thanks
