Anyone use this on any of their lights? For those that don't know what I'm talking about, it's this spray on coating that basically tints tail and marker lights black, while allowing the light to shine through. I really don't know anybody that's done this, except I think Prime from nethirdgen.org who tinted his RS's taillights (pic below). I was considering getting an extra pair of taillights for my '92 Bird and seeing how it looked. I think if the job was done perfectly, this would look absolutely kick-***, and it would flow with the car and look legal because it would just look like 91-92 T/A or GTA taillights that are black anyways. I was curious if someone here has already tried it. My only concern was the possibility of the shade of black of the taillights looking a different shade of black than the center piece with the bird on it. I also was wondering if it's easy to apply and durable. Is it easy/feasable to upgrade to brighter rear bulbs so the light shines through better and there's no issues with the law? TIA

 

i've heard its good i did all my running lights with the autozone 20% tint film and used two layers next week during spring break i'm doing the tails i'll let you know how they come out

 

 

mark a shields (our #1 poster) used it on his front turn signals IIRC. i think it looks good where mark put it, and i think it looks pretty good on the tails too. much better then some huge piece of plastic IMO

 

Thank Ya.

You can do a search, and should find my pics.
The side ones didn't turn out the best, some yellow still shows.

Goes on just like spray paint, but over time it starts to fade a little, I need to touch up.

 

I also used it.I made some covers for my front turn signals and i used it.It works really good

 

you can also search for my pics with the tint on the front and side runners and compare em i was thinkin of spraying my tails just to make my life easier

 

I dont have any pics, but I did my trans am grid style lights in nightshades. It looks good, but it does fade after awhile. When the lights are on at night, you cant tell its on there. In the day, its a bit harder to see, but not so much that you'll get hassled by anyone imo.

 

I did turn signals/side markers about a year ago.. Still looks pretty decent..

 

I did the tail lights, and all the lenses on the front of the car. I love it, shines through fine at night and looks black during the day.

 

how many coats do u put on

 

I think I did one real light coat, and 3-4 more. Just apply till it's nice and dark.

 

can i see a close up of ur tail lights and turn signals please thanks

 

I've got it on my fronts and sides.

 

ive seen some of the pictures of those cars before and i never noticed it done. looks pretty cool!

 

mark it doesnt seem very dark on ur turn signals how did u get to the side markers does it still reflect. i think i will do this, it will look sick cuz my car is black. also how many cans do u think i will need for tail lights side markers and turn signals i am already getting the head light covers

 

did my tails and turn signals 2days ago and it looks soooooowwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeet
