That came out really good man! How many coats did you put on? They don't look all the way blacked out, which is what I like, I've seen some that are pitch black and am not a fan of it, but yours look great! I'm thinking about doing the same since I have tints, black headlight housings, black grills (hood, upper, and lower), and black powder coated rims (being done as we speak).

I did 3 coats but I didn't sand them just in case i didnt like it. it's easy to remove with some thinner. but i still neeed to clear coat them it's kinda spotty up close.

Something that helps a lot when tinting your lights, tint the inside surface. Has more of a gleam to it, the night shade isn't exposed to the elements, and it hides slight imperfections from your lack of painting skillz.
