    Considering Taillight blackouts, what do you guys think is the better option, the acrylic or the vinyl overlays??

      Forgive my ignorance, but, the light shines through the paint?

        There a special spray, called night shades. Its made to let the light through. I have done it on all my cars and I like the way it looks the best IMO. If you haven't seen my car you can look at my album.

          Showstopper has a kick ass mix of black and clear that looks great and lets light through. Myself and few other members have it done.

              I love my vinyl overlays!

                  I actually skipped the lights and blacked out the bezels only. Personal preference, since every combination has its own look.

                        ...and what I meant by not looking 'clean' - you could clearly tell they were stuck on the tail light with velcro or whatever, you could see the edges of the acrylic, kinda see the taillight around the edges, too
