Was wondering if anyone had some of the VHT Night Shade (spray tint). I was using what my roommate had left him his can on my tail lights just to darken them a little and was just enough for 1 of them. I was going to buy a can but its like $10 in shipping… anyone have 1 local i can buy?

the only way to nightshade is to properly prep the lights (wetsand, alcohol, etc) and clear them after. i’ve done a good 3-4 dozen sets of lights and they always come out perfect.

You got it, do it right the first time and it’ll last as long as you want it to. Or you can pick up some Lamin-x from us too. Let me know how you make out with the Nite Shades.
