They look good on the black Evo, but I'm not sure how they'd look on mine...Nice job though

 

Does anyone know how to disassemble the rear tailights on the evo 8 so I could give it the black out look? I looked at the lights and it seems like you would need to break the glue seel surrounding the lense. Also does anyone have a pic of a black evo 8 with blacked out lenses?

 

I did this to my IS 300 headlights it was a COMPLETE pain in the *** but ended up looking really nice, got lots of compliments.

 

the headlights are not that hard i have done it many times on many cars im gonna do mine this weekend

email for pics.

 

After seeing pics of the Sparco EVO I definitely want to do it. Its a pretty simple and common thing with the stock wrx lamps, so I was wondering if anyone has done it to their EVO yet. If so any tips about doing it right?

 

its common with the wrx guys? I thought they bought JDM sti headlights??

Anyway I too would love to get my headlights blacked out like the MR evo or the sparco evo. If anyone has any leads count me in.

 

Where can I see the Sparco Evo at?

 

Heres some pics of the results from the Sparco EVO....they had them professionally painted although I think it would be easy enough to do it yourself.......

cant believe no one takes out that DAMN orange when the headlights are opened up!

 

eh.. just keep the orange... otherwise it would just become rice... my opionin ... i know there will be others that say other wise..

you can probably do them like everyone does the eclipse lights.
put the headlight in the oven at 200 degrees for about 15mins or until they pull apart... clean up residue, remove insert, paint, reinsert after it dries silicone it up so it doesn't leak and reinstall....
that is the way i did my 98 eclipse lights

 

I am afraid it would not seal well enough. Any suggestions when sealing it?

 

the lights look nice but do u really want to risk putting you headlight in the oven ihave heard alot of horror storys about that im sure if you give it a few months you will be able to buy them

 

you put them on the lowest setting 150-200 degrees..... the horror stories you here is people putting the oven at 350 plus.....
doing them at low temp will not ruin them.... i'v done two sets already one on my car and one on my boys and neither leak as long as you use silicone and do them up right.... and i also have hid's in mine.....

 

I think it would look so much better if only the back of the housing was black and the front part was still chrome. Like a sticker over the lamps and nothing else.
