Just finished painting the tails
i just nightshaded my tails, then put three coats of clearcoat on.. it looks really smoky, im hoping its just because of the amount of clearcoat,, once i sand i hope that it becomes more of a black...

robby id hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you should start looking for replacements, i did my truck in humidity and it was a BIG mistake, even with wet sanding it was all foggy.
