Hmm they looks like they are just dirty to me. Maybe another coat will help cover up the colors.

Looks like one more coat would be great, but it does look good the way it is.

Hmm, I kind of think it looks crappy. Not sure if it's just cause there is only one pic or not. Also, the driver side seems darker.

Love the Hooker tips though.

Yeah I agree maybe another coat would help, but doesn't look bad.

The right side of the tailights looks uneven. I liked the smoked look, but how long will it last, or will it fade?

I know my niteshade on the front turn signals is starting to fade. It's lasted for about 6 months would be my guess.

Geez Mark, how often are you on the thirdgen board. Do you ever get anything done? I surprised you don't have carpal tunnel syndrome by now. Just kidding, but seriously, you must love this board. I don't think I will smoke my lights since that suff fades.

damn u bastard, thats what i was gonna do! Well now u have taken out the guess work for me at least, did u have to remove the turn signals or did u just tape off the car?

Can i put that stuff on my headlights, or would it be ilegal and also be hard to see? fronkly i hate the head light black outs for are cars. i would want black outs that sit back flush against the head lights.

Really? The nightshade on mine hasn't faded (not noticeably, anyway) and it's been on there for two or three years now. The car has sat in the garage for the last year, though .
