I'll give you a better idea of what it'll look like, I did this to mine when I first got her. I went a slightly different route and you get the idea.

I like the blacked out... reminds my of my M's front in away!

I like the half too though, either way is great imo.

I'm actually a bit surprised that the black out actually looks pretty good. Something to consider for my own...

the half blacked out looks better than the others. the full black out looks very fake. I prefer to keep it stock thoug!
