I got my new tail light covers and im off from school this week for spring break and i was thinking of painting the tail light covers black but also paint the back part of the trunk black too not the top part of the trunk just the back rear. any one think this would look good? My car is Silver just to let you know. and could anyone photo shop this for me

hmm . . . i dont know if im feeling this idea . . . that is a big area to just have black . . . i would think that would stand out so much it would be like a slap in the face

:rolleyes: I'd have to agree. Wouldn't look good at all, especially with the whole front of the car stock color? IMO, it would look like you didn't have that part of the car painted, if you were looking at it from a distance, and would look cheap. Again, my opinion.

Actually search through cougarDB. I know a while back I actually saw someone do that somewhere on there and when I saw it, I thought it looked hot. Now if I would have tried to envision it I would think it looked terrible, but with seeing it I was pretty amazed at how good it looked. However, he also had a carbon fiber hood and black wheels and stuff, so there were accents to make it all flow together. Also, unless you are a great painter then just doing it as a home job, I think it would look pretty bad, unless you can do the quality of a professional shop. just my .02. Also if you are wanting a photoshop of it why don't you post a pic of a silver coug with tailight covers in the video/picture section and I am sure someone will do it there.

I like the look - too me i've growna dislike to the backside of the car - stil think the front is the best you can find with those headlights esp. Maybe if I saw it from different angles I'd prolly think against it. Its a really fake Ferrari look.

Thats the one I was talking about. I think it looks really nice on that cougar. But as mentioned it would have to have other customization done along with some black accents, or it would just look plain dumb

Just out of curiousity, what happened to his fog lights? Never seen that before.......Car looks sweet though, but I'm not feeling the eclipse rear;)

they arent fog lights. some cougars didnt come with fog lights instead the came with a filler. it has the same grill pattern as the lower grills but is a solid piece.
