Black Cobalt/Skyline!

THESE ARE NOT MY CARS

Ok I was like bored as ***** tonight and was just browsin around youtube and css.net and came up with the idea of niteshading the tails like this to give them somewhat of a skyline type look. It would be more so at night for it to look like a skyline, but hey like i said... i was really bored lol. if you really wanted to make it look like one i guess you could cake like 8 layers of niteshade on so that you can't see the light shining through the shaded parts. I'm pretty sure this would only work on black cobalts though... lemme know what you think lol.

I like how you put your cobalt emblem. But anyway, you mind as well just use black paint if you don't want the light to shine through. But I think it might look better if you could let a little light through.

Hard to tell without actually looking at it.

I did read the OP! and holy ****, it dosent say anywhere that it was done in paint or photoshop. Anyways... I think it would look best if a LED strip was added.

When I first opened this thread, there was only the OP. But yea. Use regular black paint. So no light shines through the middle at all, and use a LED strip around the paint. It'd look badass

I don't have original pics, i just did this on paint as an idea for black cobalt owners. I have an orange ss. i just niteshaded the entire tails. cptn pants you should go darker. looks pretty cool at night though.

this has already been done by someone with a black balt. he removed it tho due to light not shining thru well or something. i wish i knew his name, but this would work great with the skyline tail LED mod
