Unhappy Tail Lights

Hey guys, I have looked everywhere for some nightshade covers for my tail lights (08 Cobalt SS/TC), and seem to have no luck finding them. I see people all over this site that have them on their cars, can someone tell me where i can get some?.....thanx

there is no such thing as nightshade covers.

Nightshades is a spray on tint from a spray can

i got mine at oreillys for like 12 bucks.
there are also pre tented tails you can buy, and i am not sure of the name, but there is a company that makes an actual cover but only covers the sides of the lights, not the actual circle part of the tail lights. and if you use the nightshade, dont sand you tail lights before. i messed mine up and sanded off the nightshade, and thats why mine have a flat, or matte finish.

hope this helps.

read my post. they would be shinny if i didnt run the nightshade, but i like the flat look actually.

if you want the nice and glossy, take them out, hang them up with some coat hangers, and put light light coats on untill you are happy. the can says dont go over like 3 coats, but if you put on only 3 coats and its that dark, its gonna run.
just take your time.
