Blacked out Corners? Who sells them?

I saw a pic of a green car with Black Zr1 rims and it had blacked out corners. Does anybody know who sells them?

RKSport rips their customers off and has the absolute worse customer service known to man.

GTS is the company that makes them and I know Year One sells them.

You can also goto Afterthoughts Auto and get some VHT Nightshade and tint them yourself.

Which do you think would look better the covers or just tint them myself?

ok, that link isnt wanting to work, but yes, year one sells them for about 35 bucks, they come in clear, carbon fiber, and smoked.

With the tint, you can make them as dark or light as you want. Just put more coates on them. Also with the lights on they still shine through. They also look more like they came from the factory. IMHO

I just took them out, pulled the light bulbs out, and got some touch up spray paint for my car, and sprayed 6-7 coats on them, and put them back in. From any angle except straight, stairing at them, they seem to dissapear.

Re: Blacked out Corners? Who sells them?

I would go with VHT Nightshade if you can. I have some of the blackout corner ones in the front and no matter what bulb I use, you cannot see the DRL's or turn signals. I got in trouble down here for that. So now they just sit in my room. I am going to get Nightshade to tint my clear corners since the rest of car is black. That at least you can still see.

My Car
Here's a pic of my car with the blacked out coreners and sides. As you can see, the reflectors still work. These were done with nightshades.

Well i'm still not sure if i wanna go with the nightshade or the blackout corners because if i do the nightshade and i get pulled over for it i can't just take it off but the blackout corners i can just remove easy and put right back on.

Re: Blacked out Corners? Who sells them?

Well i went ahead and got the VHT niteshade stuff. I'll post pics of how it looks after i do it. I went with the niteshade because i want light to be able to shine through. Hopefully if it does the cops won't bother me as much. If it looks bad though then i'll just buy the covers though.
