hey whats up guys i was at pep boys today and i saw some night shade and i had to but it. i had never seen it in the store before so i had to buy it as put it on well here it is.... what you think?????

before






During to paint process




and the result

 

I like it. Should have taped the reverse lights off imo but its your truck not mine.

 

looks good i like it. i want to nightshade the whole tail light like that on mine.

 

yea i like it all dark too... but to each his own man. another thing use gas to clean the light REALLY well youll thanks me in the end

 

will do

 

i wouldn't have gone so dark...

 

should of spent the money on a tailgate handle

pm me i have one if you need it

 

now that its dark out side its not as dark as i was afraid it was going to be... it looks bad a$$ and i love it.

 

I'd smash 'em with my fist if I was behind you in the daytime and it was raining....and we happened to be going into the same parking lot....




It's not at night that it matters, it's DURING THE DAY!!!!!

 

yea i guess that would make sence... ill take pics tomorrow with lights and breaks on and you can see how they are during the day. i dont think there that bad...

 

They are bad.... I can tell that by just pics on the interwebs....

 

x2

 

have fun getting rolled by the chp

 

I too would have taped off the reverse lights. I like them bright when I'm backing up. Plus it makes them look better.

They are pretty damn dark too. I have two coats on my Bronco and three on my Ranger and haven't had any problems with johnny law.

 

^^You're also NOT in Burbank! lol.








duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude......THIS should be your next mod!!





In all seriousness, niteshades when done smartly and in moderation, look and perform just fine. BUT...90% of the shaded folks out there literally black them out. This my reasoning for being a hardcore niteshade hater. All this coming from a former 2 or 3 coat niteshade rocker!

and here's some proof...

 

shane, the pic you posted is no compairison... yours have a light coat and can still see red through them

yup ... i lasted all of a month in my old accord and the officer who gave me the fix it ticket pointed out that if im rear ended with blacked out tails i could possibly be put at fault if the driver behind me couldnt see the brakes light up

 

that at fault thing is complete bull****... if someone rearends you because they didn't see you're brake lights light up, they are trying to get themself out of hot water... but prove they are lying in court...

 

I posted it due to what seems to be a common occurance when things get heated.....people saying I hate all niteshades and that I'm a total hater. Well...I'm self proclaimed a niteshade hater AND a former owner. lol. Just showing proof because sometimes, I gotta show it anyway. lol.

 

fair enough... i should qualify, i'm not a night shade hater, i just like it when it's done lightly... yours don't look bad, although it's darker than i would do...

if i could find it in canada...

 

Thats why when i tinted mine I didn't do the CHMSL. It's stock and unmodified. Sure some people might notice that its still red, but most never say anything.

Plus you can still see red in my lights, even during the day. (lights off some sun on one side but you get it... yes i keep the tailgate locked now lol)

 

eff it....i'm trollin'....so bam! daytime AND sunny shots. lol.

 

eh, if anything ill just coat my tails in more red.....looks stock and the more coats you go the better it looks lol

 

hey hey hey dont be bagin on the head light covers they are great for wheeling you can cover your truck in mud and pull them off on the way home and have nice clean lights just dont wheel at night with them

blah....won't change my opinion...


idk....maybe it's that I've got the last 6 years without needing them when I go wheelin'? and if they do get coated, I got that case of water in the toolbox and my hand as a rag...

oh....and i'm soooo past 'muddin'. lol
