Arrow VHT nightshades easy DIY

All i wanted to do was tint the stock taillights, without paying alot for new ones, so did some browsing and saw this paint called VHT Nite-Shades, and tried it out, I sanded them down with wetsand, 3 coats of vht and 3 coats of automotive clear gloss, and a little wax and they came out amazing, id recommend this to anyone who just wants to darken a few things up!

Pics up tomorrow when its not dark out.

The problem with VHT Nite-Shades is that you don't get a consistent look or finish, not to mention it's a pain in the ass if you ever have to remove it due to legal reasons. I personally would have looked into a product called Lamin-X, as they offered a durable smoked tint that comes pre-cut for lighting applications.
