Re: smoked turn signals ?

VHT Nite-Shades. Go as light or as dark as you want.



Those were the same "crystal clear" park lights from e-Bay.



And the same lights coated with Nite-Shades...

Re: smoked turn signals ?

^^^Those look good but I would be concerned about dimming the lights. I'm interested in these smoked diamond cut parking lamps also.

I took this just after the one up top. Amber lights are still quite visible behind the lens.

here you go, hope this helps, I got a set from this guy, good quality and look great on my car.

EDIT Mine are smoked, the ones in the auction are clear, the seller may have some smoked if you contact him directly.

Re: smoked turn signals ?

I got the clear ones as well. I was in the same situation as to not finding the smoke ones as well. I settled for the clear ones and now the more pics I see of them the more i like them and if i want the smoke ones I will night shade them

Re: smoked turn signals ?

Al,

How many coats of night shade did you use? Your setup looks good, it gives the car a stealthy look.

I can't say for sure. Maybe 3 or 4 thin coats. I kept going until I could barely see the back of the housing through the tint. I lightly scuffed the lens and made sure every thing was clean, used a space heater to bring the pieces to a good temperature and heated the spray can in hot water (a couple of tricks I learned from building plastic models)

Re: smoked turn signals ?

Just a little information: Federal ODOT law require turn signals to have clear or yellow lenses. Just another way for the car to look cool and you getting a ticket.
