o ya that pic of them on the hood...times are tought when you need a workbench lol...actually i just sat them there to dry in between coats and whatnot...ill be buffing them in the morning...and my cousins tails he f*cked up cuz he lacks skills at certain things lol so we had to sand them down completely and redo them...they look a little better but should be nice after we buff them too

[boosting98]

maybe it is just the lighting. in the sun they should look REALLY good!

 

[putskijr]

Hey guys so I re-did my tails. They were too dark for the daytime and I didn't wanna risk getting rear ended or pulled over. So I only used one coat and they turned out quite nice! First I used 80grit and orbital sander, then 140, then 400. One coat of vht and 3 coats of clear! Looks alot better then stock IMO and not too dark for the daylight. They're just right! I'll get sum pics up soon

80 grit?? I know VHT is a PITA to remove but 80 grit is a little rough on the len.. I would like to see pictures..

80 is what they had at work so I used all their stuff lol. And I don't think it did much damage to the lense since I watched it to make sure I only took the vht off. I shoulda took pics throughout the whole process bit I only had my phone at the time. I'll get sum decent pics of them on the car now if I'm not sick tomorrow

Im waiting for someone to do this to there windows....:th_popcorn:

 

[skidoojames151]

thats what VHT is intended for^^^

 

[nawarkk]

Really? Because on the can it has a picture of tail lights lol

Besides, if you did it to windows, wouldn't it be all sticky and not smooth like tint film?

 

[silverstreak]

It is not for windows :th_shakinghead2:

 

[skidoojames151]

haha did you also know gullable isnt in the dictionary :th_laugh-lol3:

 

[BoostJunki3]

80 grit :th_nervous:

I love how the can says "for off road use only"

what off roader is going want to tint their tail lights??? lol

 

[nawarkk]

The reason they say "For off road use only" is because there are no laws "off road".

"On road" your car has to operate like normal so having your tail lights tinted is illegal. They do that to cover their asses.
