3 coats of VHT and 3 coats of Clear coat with wetsanding in between every coat. I gotta say, I love the way they look. They match the car perfectly.
I also sanded the rim of my tips to make them silver. Looks good
Look at those crisp reflections!
They look so much better then the pictures, but what can you do lol

can you see the light thru those? haha they look sweet, i did my stockers w 2 light coats and a medium coat and i couldnt see anything in the day...so i sold them

They are kinda dark. I'm hoping it turns out like the ones on my GT where they magically became more visible.

Looks awesome for vht, what grit did you sand with in between and did you wetsand before you put on your first coat?
03-09-2010
I only had 2000 grit laying around so that's all I used the whole time. I sanded it before the first coat of VHT and in between every coat of VHT/Clear coat.

looks good. mine have faded really bad in the last year. i need to redo mine...

The ones on the silver GP next to mine have gotten pretty rough to the touch but still look good and it's been a year and all I did to those was literally three coats of vht, no sanding or clear. They look ok but lack the shine and smoothness that these have now
I'm gonna try and keep on top of them, wax every once in a while to protect them.

Looks sexy, now ditch the snow flakes and your car would be extremely sexy.

lol I'm trying to find rims.. I may just go the Bullits route since there are a couple of people selling some around me.. I definitely don't wanna rock snowflakes in the summer! Doesn't make sense anyways: There's no snowflakes in the summer time lol

Looks good, just watch out for the police, i got 5 coats on mine and the cops dont like them to much

Looks great man. And the color of the car is one of my favorites!

you need to wetsand more and use a buffing wheel with some rubbing compound

What is better to use? I may have to look into it if it's of better quality. I've had the ones on my GT for about a year and they look okay and I didn't even go through these steps.That's one reason NOT to use VHT!

Black mixed with automotive clear.
