Post up pics when done! It will look great on your black V.

I like my red V and her bright red lights. They all blend in together :D
Cool!

Did you do that in your kitchen? ;)

Looks good. Post pics up after it's on the car.
Well I had to clean them and prep them in the kitchen so I had plenty of light and room.

I wont' have them on the car until tomorrow because I can't find my stupid clear coat and no one else is home to run and get me some so I'm stranded till tomorrow. lol

But now since I am home I am really wanting to do the headlights too! But just a little tint... cause I'd still like to see the road when I drive. lol
time out stop


take a blow dryer and use it for a fast dry but also go easy with the spray it will get to dark if u do it to much i just did them for the 4th time now cuz i got a ticket for them well a warning ticket

i have to make it darker so u can see it




it say on the bottom

TAIL LIGHTS TINTED / LESS THEN 100FT


so yeah they got me cuz they could not see me from 100FT but its the law here
See less See more
All done.

Before.


After.
ok cool u did good thats what mine looks like now lol
Did you do yours yourself?

How many coats did you put on?
I only did 3 coats so I'm hoping its not too bad. If it is well I guess I will be sanding them down for hours lol
i did about 3 i know i did 2 full coats but i did one blow dryed it and did another then blow dryed and did one mist and then clear it 3 times it looks like glass right now
I noticed you said you have done it like 4 times now. How did you get the paint off?
Looks like a nice apartment there Cody.

BTW, slick taillights you have.
Its a brand new house! lol
Just got built a little over a month ago. :D
sand it down with 800 grit and 1000 grit took about 2 hours yesterday cuz it was so dark but everything is good and i asked a cop could they see me if i went down the road she said yeah and gave me a paper saying i took care of the lights so no court them blood sucking BAS%$#$#. 120 for corut cost. i hate NC

Thats what I figured lol

But I remembering seeing pictures of yours and they were straight up black. lol It looked like you just straight up used black paint. Looked really good though!

Hopefully mine will turn out amazing! Oh and won't get any fix it tickets.
ill take pics in the am and post them on urs so u can see mine but i miss the strip but when i sand it down all u saw was a fog look so i did it all black again but if i find some one up here with a versa that wants some im just going to trade and do them like the old ones
Oh are you talking about how you coated everything but the reverse lights?

I'm thinkin about getting the LED's from VersaSpeed cause I heard they were brighter. that also might help us out. :D
Also did you put clear coat on yours..?

I ran out of clear coat and can't get any till tomorrow so I was wondering if anyone else has used it or not.
well autozone sell some led tail lights im thinking about getting and taking the tail light apart but not 100% ?????????????????? Got Lost But Now Im Found ?????????????????
