Any body havr a victory red cobalt with night shades on both headlights and tailights? If so pics please

 

just tail light ive been thinkg about doing the headlights but idk yet

 

click on pics for rear shot.

why would you nightshade the headlights? do you not like seeing at night?

 

i was thinking about just using like 50% tint to get that smoked look

 

I thought they switched to normal at night guess not! thanks tho

 

nite shades is just a tinting paint same effect as window tint

If you're going to do your headlights and still would like to be able to see at night...I would advise these:

And go with the "tint" color...not gun-smoke. (there's a thing near the bottom that shows all the different variations)

 

if you arent good at this type of stuff, i recommend not doing it. Its not hard, its just that its a pain in the ass. Good luck though

 

i already have my night shade can im think of jsut doing them lightly just one coat maybe two

 

yeah my buddies ask me to do there's I tell them NO. I dont like doing nite shades on others peoples cars i'll mess up my light but no one elses

goddamn database errors.!!!!!!!! at least your-cobalt doesnt have them

 

Played out. /thread

 

Well, sense were on topic anyone have pic of yellow car with headlights done.

 

My personal experience with nite shades is that it's not worth it, it will never look nearly as good as having a profesional tint shop put on a smoked film over your taillights/headlights. I followed the nite shades how-to's to the T and I got the perfect level of darkness but no matter how much wet sanding/polishing I couldn't get them to be a really nice gloss. After atempting the process twice I took my car to a tint shop in town and had all 7 rear lights done for $75 looks fantastic and the shine is awesome.

 

they look darker than they actually were, but thats because its well...dark haha. and the second one is in a shadow. but it really didn't effect light output very much.

 

Hmm I'm really considering just gettinh the tint now but if I do the night shades is there a way to remove

 

you cant remove nite shades. which is why alot of people dont do it.

TIT

I found the heaier the coats the more gloss i got. mine are high gloss w/o clear coat

 

Hey beam did u night shade ur headlights?

 

oh yes you can remove niteshades haha.

 

Looks good, is that nite shades or a tint film?

Yes you can remove nite shades it's just a pain in the ass. After I finished mine and realized I didn't like it at all I wet sanded all the color of with a 600 grit then moved to a 1000 then a 1500 then a 2000 and then polished them, looked as good as new when I was done but like I said it is a pain in the ass.
