i did the same thing, i used speacial duplicolor lense paint. got it at the local auto zone for 12 bucks

 

this is actually similar to what i want to do mine. all blacked out

 

so today i tried to get some good flex shots, didnt happen =[ maybe one day i will build an RTI ramp or make friends with someone that does.....

 

ok wow i love this one! i just ordered front signal lights for blacking out and ill spray the rear ones! and get this..... for the 3rd brake light im gonna tape off 'Jeep' and when i hit the brakes it'll be black and jeep!

BTW: hows that spray holdin up for ya? and any good techniques?

 

Thanks man!

And prep. Its always about the prep.

i sanded it down to 2000 grit and did a tack wipe before too. Then just normal spray technique.

You cant have any shiny plastic when you paint it

 

what brand did ya use? rustoleum?

 

VHT Nite Shade

 

When you painted the front end, what kind of paint did you use, looks real good

Best stuff ever!!!

 

I used a high build auto primer, sanded it then i did a standard rustolem auto flat black. 3 coats.

And thank you for the compliment.

 

You got one sweet ride here! Definitely gonna keep checking in! How do those TSL Radials do on the road? been thinking about changing out my trusty BFG A/Ts for some of those when I get the chance.

 

thanks man!!


I have 0 issues with them on the road. Perform just like any tire i have owned (but better off road ) And if you live in wet wet wet conditions i would reccomend the SSR. But even still the TSL's handle really great in the rain, never hydro planed, even in the worst rains (85 down the highway with rain sheets!)

 

sweet 2 door. gives me a lot of motivation for my own. deff subbed to keep up with this build

 

But doesnt this dry flat? I did my infiniti with the vht but we had to clear over it too. Not can clear we used actual auto clear through a spary gun.

 

Lol, yeah. When you say rain, you can basically say that the Northwest is synonymous with it. But thats good to hear, my buddy has been running original TSLs for a while. Some 33x.13.5s (which were worn to start with but basically turned to racing slicks after a few months. He just put on some 36" TSLs and they look better, but His first exp. made me leary lol. But good to hear!
