Looks pretty good to me! How many coats of nightshade did you use on your tails, they look black in the pics.

2 coats + 1 clear coat, i didnt use nightshade. i used regular paint. works just as good imo. just make sure you sray from a distance and very lighty spray it. took a few trys at it to get it right.

Do you have any pictures of the rear of the truck? How well can you see them when braking during the day?
