***Updated with photos***


I know I loaded the photos right, sometimes my work comp wont let me see them and right now i dont see them... so let me know what everyone else see's


***Updated the How-To http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/817530-how-tint-your-tail-lights-spray-tint.html***

Ive been debating doing it because I finally found the voers I want and I cant justify spending around 60 bucks versus about 15.

I will create a How-To since I could not find one on here through the search.

wish me luck

Good luck man, I tried doing it to mine and it came out horrible. But then again i didnt wet sand it at all, so it just looked dull and dark, not good looking at all. I had to buy new tail lights cuz i messed them up so much

spraying a coat of glossy clear over the top of the tint probably would have fixed the dullness

Lol thats the, I did. For every coat of tint I did, i did a coat of gloss and it still came out bad.
