I did mine with nightshades then put clear over them, they looked good for a year then faded to a purplish colour... yuk

 

did you rattle can clear?

 

i think this is the best outcome of night shades ive ever seen.Looks great
But x2 for getting them painted

 

Yeah you're right! I don't know if I put mine black or red tinted or just wait :P I think I'm gonna wait untill I get more $$$ and I'll buy some aftermarket taillights

 

so redid my nite shade, and did a little more.

 

there is a moron in every site and you my friend are it.... you really dont know shyt about vinyl nor should you speak up about it.... lol maybe next time have a pro install it for you and maybe you will get desired results.... btw i have wrap so many cars in vinyl and lights with perfect results.... i guess your just to cheap to have a pro do it for you.... i will tell you straight up its all in the hands of the installer.... so keep being a amature, keep spouting off, its you who only looks like a fool..... and to anyone who buys ebay crap, you are the ones looking to have problems.... do yourself a favour and hire a pro to do it.... and have them supply the material.... ebay sells crap material and then it gets installed by people who dont know nothing about it.....

 

You insults would carry at least some weight if you would take a minute to get your spelling right. I mean, if you're going to call someone an amateur fool, spell it right, or you make yourself look the bigger fool.
Just saying....


Anyway. Nightshade. To me it always has had somewhat of a matte look to it. That's why I bought painted tails.

 

whatever bro.... who cares about spelling i am just saying like many others on this site they really dont know nothing about what they are saying.... painting is great.... however if it is a front light it will look horrible.... specially after a year.... in the balts case with no front marker lights it is ideal.....

and seriously if spelling is what makes you look like a fool then we are all fools.... coz no one has perfect grammer and also we canadians have diff spelling for alot of words then americans.... which in some examples you would look like a fool for correcting me..... get the point?

thus i will appoligies for my typo

 

Vinyl is definitely the way to go however, I've seen great results both ways. I've done nightshades on my Teg back in the day and they looked great.

Lol crooked plate, oh and no lights on just flash from camera. I actually sprayed them darker, and cut more coatings off towards the center to give the edges a darker look while allowing good visibility.


I never did Vinyl on my car/s, but a lot of my friends have and every time they come out great. Always a nice gloss, if that is what you're going for. If you want great results from both methods you need to know what your doing, plain and simple.

 

That you're too lazy to think about how stupid you just made yourself? Yes, I got the point.

 

the problem starts when the individual does not properly prepare the light..... you must scuff sand the light first.... then spray your desired darknesss.... then use a high quality clear..... then results will be good.... however most dont scuff sand the light..... then they use a crap clear..... lol i will share a story about one of the first meets i attended.... this guy was proud of the job he done on his tails.... he even went as far to mask a image into the spray.... i will admit it was cool.... then he touch a piece of the image and low and behold it fell right off the light.... trying not to laugh or be sarcastic i was like hmmmm well it was a cool image.... he was so mad.... i simply said next time you need to scuff the light then it should hold.... or i could have printed you the image in vinyl and then wrapped you light and you would never have to worry....

whatever bro.... think what you want i made a simple typo.... go play teacher with someone else.... you do what you do for a living i will stick to customizing cars...
