well, ive done mine and i have done others too for $$..... honestly.. clearing/blacking the lights is not tooo much work. but taking the car apart, doing the lights, and putting it back together is....

i would definitely do others if they are interested.... if you just want the lights done, its one thing, having me uninstall-reinstall. is a lot of work.

my prices would be as follows

$100 clearing. (bring me the lights off the car)
$150 blacking. (bring me the lights off the car)
$200 clearing.. i do it all
$250 blacking, i do it all

be aware, this process is a TEDIOUS one and takes alot of patience and time. average time is about 11-12 hours for blacking and 7-8 hours for clearing. blacking requires a decent amount of work. you may want to have a friend follow you so that you dont have to be bored for 10+ hours while i do it.

here are brians that i did. he wanted the silver ring around the projector shroud to remain silver







here are mine. i painted the silver ring black. kind of did it on accident, but enjoy the originality of it all






we are both LEAK FREE!!! hence the amount of time that goes into carefully sealing it back up. NOT ONE DROP OF WATER IN MINE!! and brians actually leaked before i did it, and now they dont!

they may fog up the first few days after the work (based solely on humidity and climate) but the goes away within a day or two

also, it doesnt have to be just black...any color that can be purchased in heat resistant engine enamel is cool. black, white, blue, red whatever.

if you wanted it to match your exact car paint code (NBP,ABP,WDP) then you need a body shop to get involved.

Blackacura, if we were to make a meet, I would DEF be able to remove everything, and im sure everyone else would be able to start taking apart the bumper, I think its more of a matter of you baking/clearing/sealing.......The rest Im sure I can do. I just wanna clear mine, dont even wanna black em out.......how big is your oven, so far about 10 ppl interested!

Also Black Acura where on LI are you Nassau? Suffolk?

$200....Sounds fair to me, especially because of the work involved. When can I make an appointment! I have never been to Long Island but I'm always up for a road trip. I work in Hoboken so the drive probably wouldn't be too bad, just have to deal with the traffic!

yea one per day is about the maximum. it takes alot of work. i might be able to do a clearing while i do a blacking, but two blackings in one day, not happening lol
