REALLY want these, but before I pull the trigger, I wanted to ask, has anyone used these?

Several owners have them....Here's a few I found. You can search in "Gallery", so I searched "tail light covers" and then looked through pics to find them.

Thx kat. I did see a few, but I wasn't sure if they were GTS brand--and I wasn't sure if there were quality differences & stuff.

I've never seen anything available except the GTS brand. I've noticed they're pretty consistent in price from different places, usually about $54. Many paired them with the front headlight covers too, and alot of them were on Ebonys.

Mine is ebony....go figure. :p

Was also looking at headlight covers & door vent guards. I see they also offer Carbon Fiber look....but those scare me. Anyone tried those?

yeah, I had a pair of the CF front covers, but sold them.
Here's one pic I found:

Looks nowhere near as good as the smoked ones above. That I don't even see the CF in that.

You know you can do a light frosting with Plasti Dip. That way you only spent $4. And it can be rubbed off.

Or you can use the canned tint from an auto parts store. I used a product called Nite Shades.

You can take it off with a solvent (like gasoline) if you don't like it or just get tired of it.

I used this on my rear side marker lights and really liked the results.

I was hoping for a more gloss look, and it takes a fair amount of additional effort to get nightshades to look like that. I don't even know if that can be accomplished with plastidip.
