I've been wanting to smoke my taillights. My friends told me he knew how to do it but i saw how he did his Integra and my other bud's Cavalier...and it looks really dull. I want to do it but make sure it looks good...like the glossy look:) Is that hard to do...or is my friend just not good at it? lol.
Oh! im also thinking about front light covers. I'm thinking about getting some GTS covers i found on andysautoparts. What shade would look best...and would i have problems with those here in Texas?

it doesnt take 2 days to do...it'll prolly take an hour tops if you just stay on it..i was just farting around and figured i would do it...plus im lazy so i just did one one day and one today...yea i actually wet snaded mine to get all the scratches out of my taillights before i sprayed the tint over it...you can use 1000, 1200, or 2000 grit sandpaper....and when your done you can also spray a coat of clear over top of the tint....i was shining a flashlight through my taillight and it goes through just fine
