Be careful of laquer thinner... dont end up like my head lights...
And blacking out the headlights... looks hot in the day time, but sucks ***** when trying to drive at night... I just went and sparyed the inside of my head lights, its a good look.

 

I used VHT night shades on my ride and it looks really good. It is a spray on tint. I dont have any picks up but ill put them up soon.

 

I have used both nightshades spray with a clearcoat, and tint film. Laquer thinner will remove the spray with no problem, at least it did for me.

But the film is by far the easiest way to both apply and remove, and looks the best. Bluebatmobile makes some of the best stuff, customer service is aweseome, and the end results are fantastic. Save yourself the time, headache, and money, and just order the film. Applies in minutes, comes off in minutes, looks great, keeps a good glossy look with minimal effort compared to painting, and lasts a lifetime.

 

heat wrapping film onto the taillights are ridiculously frustrating.. haha i had my headlights tinted with film a while ago and it came out great, but i gave up wrapping my tails.. too many curves and ****

 

Yeah same thing on the tail lights. I bought the layover tint for it and it was a pain and i finally got it on and it ripped lol so i bought the spray

 

dude, how did that happen?? did you use vht shades? never seen lacquer thinner do that before.. hhah

 

From the looks of it he let it sit on there too long...

 

if you want some quality tinted tail lights talk to this guy, he paints them and look awsome,Smokey's Lights i bought mine a while abo but got rear ended, deff will go back the guy does awsome work and if you want them lighter he will meet your needs. As you can see they blended veryyy well with the car, and also look pretty clear at night no real problems seeing the or anything.

 

You sprayed the inside of your taillight?

 

i used nail polish remover that did the trick

 

I'll most likely leave it on i was just doing a "just in case" kinda thing lol So I'm guessing tinting the headlights aren't do good of an idea?

 

i don't recommend it.. plus i don't think tinted headlights look that great, and why do anything that will affect your sight? haha it's for your safety and the safety of others!

 

ok mr. safety! lol jk I think it looks pretty good

 

i had my headlights tinted with the heatwrap film.. and it was cool for a bit, but the light shined thru SO much brighter when i took it off. i know that sounds obvious, but the different was staggering. you can always try it and take it off when you get tired of them =]

 

I looked and there was no matches for "mazda" lol looks really good i want them to be just that dark too

 

where did you get your film from?

 

decalfx.com

 

I looked at that site when i was searching haha looks like good stuff

 

Haha, yeah my genius friend was helping me take the black off my headlights and had the idea of soaking a paper towel and letting it sit on there... clearly a bad idea on the outcome.
This is what they looked like blacked out... Did it myself with an ink and harder based spray..never really liked that nightshades stuff.


But i havent gotten to open the tail lights yet, I am still trying to figure out if it is possible... but yeah I painted the inside of my headlights, Got my HIDs back, but lost my high beams... oh well, way better trade.

 

thats clean....

 

how many coats did you use i wanted it really dark but the can says dont put more than 3 coats

 

Since we are on the subject. And I'm not meaning to thread jack. But my friend sprayed his tails with vht and looks dang good. I sprayed mine. 4 coats. Bad idea. I couldn't see my lights. So I decided to sand down and retry. Well I got to sanding and come to find out my tails are cracked in many places on both of them. Its pretty bad too. Ill try to get pics. So I don't know what to do. I think I may have to get new lights. My friends cracked a little. But mine are bad! What would cause this? Is there a way to fix?

 

Btw. My tails look good during day! But when I turn lights on I could see cracks! Cracks are only visible when lights are on.

 

4 coats of vht before any sanding. Looks good huh? But you can't see lights at all really.


Red tail with cracks after a little sanding. Bad pic but that's as good as it gets for pic. But you can see cracks.


Hare is a pic with turning signals. Hard to see because they are so bright. But this is also after a little sanding. But there are cracks in tail.

 

wow...
