    Default blacking out headlights and tail lights.

    ok so i did my head lights and tail lights, i baked the headlights and they came out really good. when i did the tail lights i used a heat gun to seperate the lens fron the housing. couldnt i bake the tail lights just like the headlights to make it that much easier? every search i do is using a heat gun and a dremel. not to keen on using a dremel on the evo.

    Tail lights have thiner plastic and are bigger if you have them in there to long they will warp. Never geard of the dremel part I used a razor blade and hair dryer on mine

    ya the fronts i sealed with just a gray silicone from the auto store. lito, its not fun stuff, but im willing to do em for a low cost. it is yucky work, and time consuming.
