GMC Blacked Out/Darker Headlights?


Recommended Posts

Posted

So the new 2021 Yukon got released today and I noticed that the headlights on these are completely blacked out and I absolutely love it. The one complaint id have about the new Sierra's for me personally is that theres too much chrome going on in the headlights especially on an AT4 with its darker nature. Was curious if anyone has taken apart/sent out their housings to be blacked out or colour matched? I feel like if these were even just a darker chrome like gun metal it would make the trucks appearance that much better. Also swap out the orange side markers to clear ones! Attached some pics of the new Yukon headlights. If anyone has done this some pics/pricing would be greatly appreciated!

I've done it to my Silverado.  Phil Sheridan at Fastheadlights can help you out with this.  He can be reached on this forum at "fastws6ta" (https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/profile/134157-fastws6ta/) or at his website https://www.fastheadlights.com/default.asp. I had to ship off my headlights, he cracked them open using an oven, put a cover over the amber running light, then removed the amber lens and replaced it with a clear lens.  After that he resealed it and shipped it back to me.  I've posted pics of the end product below  He can also do custom paint on the inside of the light housing.

How much did he charge for that? Been wanting to do the same thing, but there is no way I’m putting my headlights in an oven myself lol

Damn that looks killer! How it should look from the factory! How much did he charge you?

I think it was around $300 but if you contact Phil he can give you an exact quote.  Also, you will have to factor in shipping as these lights are huge when packed and it will need to be insured for about $2,000.

It definitely cleans up the front and sets it apart though.   Go for it!  :)
