Tint the headlights too, otherwise the car won’t match and it’ll look gay. ---

Get them sprayed by a body shop. It’s the only way to go IMO. I send mine out to a guy thats done all of mine but most body shops should be able to recreate it. I’m sure CRC could do them for you. ![http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j26/Frank2O/88d35255.jpg](http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j26/Frank2O/88d35255.jpg) ---

yeah we can do that no problem, time is hard at the moment though, if you dont want it done asap and can wait I can help you out. If not I would recommend Capital District Truck Center myself. the nice thing about doing it with autobody clear is like they said, it can be wetsanded and buffed to perfection. ---

I’ve found you can get good results with VHT Niteshades, but if you get too greedy it gets bad really fast. I generally only use it to get the taillights to more of a darker ruby red color, rather than going for the “smoked” or blacked out look. And of course use clearcoat and buff. ---

Just wondering. becasue of this frank guy who works there… always scrappin on his scraper bike n shit, stuntin off like hes all cool and shit. Nahh for real, those guys are solid people there… Before I knew anyone there my car broke down there (lock nut loosened up and somehow backed out the adjustment screw on my fuel pressure regulator and it was running pig rich) I limped it into there and someone took a minute to grab me an allen wrench set and a wrench so I could fix it, then shot the shit with me for a few. Every time I come in to get what ever they are all top notch people to deal with. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/tinted-tails-shop/263510.md?page=1)
