In todays video we black out my stock Halogen tail lights and 3rd brake light using a pretty cool technique that I found out about!

For anyone considering doing this process. It worked great on my 2017 f150. I did this exact process including distilled water, let dry in front of a fan overnight, and they turned out fantastic. 2 gallons of degreaser and 2 gallons of distilled water was more than enough to do all 3 lights.

Looks great! Purple power and super clean will do this as well for anyone curious. Keep in mind this may not work on every tail light/headlight depending on the manufacturer.

I think it looks great!! I've never heard of such lol. I definitely think this is a viable option. Loving the way the truck is looking. I think I would remove the FX4 emblem if it were mine. Once the blue ovals are addressed this thing will be perfect IMO.

Get the black f-150 decals for the tailgate. It would look so good

I like it a lot because it's a really good look and technically it's still legal. It still has the red reflectors and the factory color lights so there's really nothing you could get a ticket for. If you're really concerned about the brightness of the lights just switch them over to LED bulbs.

I had never heard of that before, but it turned out great. I already did a thin spray on tint on mine, so I probably won't do it to mine, but they're about the same darkness, just yours kept the factory shine. Definitely try out some cheap ones for context, you already have a view from me.
