Hey I have a quick question, does this work to black out the original amber corners or do you have to buy the clear ones and then paint them.

TopGear8 03-15-2009 08:32 PM

You can black out the amber markers as well.

vtfanatic69 03-15-2009 09:00 PM

Wow that looks sick. I'm doing it

dhan 03-18-2009 01:11 AM

Yes i had a question about the side markers as well. I got the vht nightshade and also a can of clearcoat. I think it is around 3-4 coats for the sidemarkers in between 10min letting them dry. Then i do not know how many coats of clear coat? Also would i have to wet sand them or dry sand? because i have 600 sanding paper. help please!
