And I did them that dark because I have another set of tails if I feel like going red.

that looks awesome!!! do you have to get the nightshade stuff or can you do it with gloss black paint?? i was thinking about doing this also, i have a broken tail light that i can use as a "test light" so if i **** up its not a big deal. im heading to town tomorrow morning so maybe i'll pick up another can of gloss black( have one for the mower and dont wanna use it other than on the mower) and try it.

If you insist on painting though you need to get VHT Niteshades, regular paint won't allow light to pass through.

If you're gonna do the whole tail light including the reverse part then I'd use stick on window tint. A guy at RPS did it and it came out really nice and you don't have to worry about wet sanding or anything. Plus if you don't like it you can always reverse it.

Use Nightshade, mine is 3 coats of Nightshade and 3 coats of clear, I didn't wet sand after i sprayed. Its not that hard to screw up actually, I thought I would that's why I did my 2000 lights and not the 04's.
I finally did my third brake light tonight because i was bored, I did two coats of Shade and no clear.
