So I saw an eclipse today who flat blacked his tail lights, signals, etc. I don't think the light will get through the flat black paint well enough, but has anybody tried that tint stuff on them?

 heres a pic of mine. well if you smoke out your tail lights make sure you DO put clear coat on top. you could get acrylic clear coat at any PEARL paint shop thats where i got mine. as for VHT Nite Shade you could pick that up at a car shop or autozone or something. and if you do decide to smoke it heres a tip.. if you want to make it look darker dont keep on spraying.. spray one layer, let it dry, once its fully dry, add another layer and so forth.. have fun
