No like with a automotive spray gun. The mixture is mostly clear, (maybe 6 parts clear to one part black), but I'm not sure. Not spray paint.

if you wanted to go really cheap a dusting of black spray paint can be used but it doesnt look very good its really dull. when my friend bought his si the prev owner had done this to it.

wait, so your using a standard automotive paint on those? im only asking cuz ive never seen them myself. and u make it into a single stage concoction? i would stick with clearing it too. it would last longer :th_thumbsup-wink:

Why did you go 3 coats? i grabed a can last night and might be doing this today/this week, i dont wanna become a hazard on the road in the day with people not seeing my break lights...would 2 coats be enough?

do it so they are just dark enough that you can see a deep red looks best IMO mine are tinted and look black in the low light and in the sunlight look deep red. too dark looks gay IMO they dont look like llights anymore that way.

these looks identical to mine but better ...hence the website, flip is a beast.... mine are pretty close tho after lots of clear and wetsanding and buffing
for 10$ at that.....flip's prices are pretty steep.....you get what you payfor tho.

Thats a faults statement..
70 plus shipping is high??
Its 150 to get the done down the street from me.. Its cheaper to do them yourself but not by alot..
Masking tape, sandpaper. scuff pad,Wax & tar remover, clearcoat,tack rag, tint & thinner to clean the gun. It adds up..
I DONT use black tint/clear mix.. I use a 3 color mix that I came up with to get the best lighting out of the lights. This tint is new..
These are my mixture
