[TOI-MAT]

Thanks after a little research I found it at Advanced Auto. Also found this tutorial on-line. Do you have any pictures of them finished?

any pics of the process? and finshed close up's?

I'm considering a light smoked setup. I would like to go that route casue every other set I have seen has a chrome trim ring around them.

I will try to get some picks up soon..

It worked pretty good but i did have some paint run when using the clearcoat.
I had to spray it on really thick or else it looked splotchy and when i sprayed it on thick it ran. so i was kinda in a lose lose situation but oh well it turned out pretty good. I did 3 coats of vht and 3 of clearcoat and it turned out pretty dark.

timgco- if you want them lightly smoked i would say do 1 or 2 lights coats of the vht nightshades.

I can write up exactly what i did if yall would like

I followed the instruction from my precious post (basic not professional). I figured once I purchased all the material for professional I could just buy them online already completed. I have to agree with Big Z the clear coat actually took away from the process. I decided not to clear coat after doing one. Here are some pics.

ya that professional one is not really necessary. i would still sand them though. if you try the clearcoat be careful. plus if you dont do it you can always go back and do it later if you want.

Toi-mat - glad everything worked out for you

Sorry about the quality, the size limits on the pictures is ridiculous. I will try to take some pictures at night tomorrow. These are dark tinted but I can see the lights no problem.

Thanks Big Z! I didn't even know this was an option before I read this tread. Saved me lots of cash No I just need to get a few more mods done and it will be almost all black and blue
