I f*cked up one of my taillights and one of my corners with that VHT NightShade spray. First, I tried rubbing alcohol: this will work if you scrub HARD...took me about 30 mins to undo a corner...so, when I screwed up on one of my tails, I went to O'Reilly Auto Parts and got a bottle of Acetone. Came off the whole tail in about 15 mins (so about 50x faster than rubbing alcohol). And it looked pretty damn close to brand new condition when I was done too. FYI: don't try acetone on the heads (I screwed up on one of the heads and I had to buy a new one)...idk what's different about the materials between the heads and the tails but it must be different cuz the tail came out perfect and the head was screwed forever..

Acetone, paint-thinner, or since it's only the corner light; using very fine grade sand paper

if u dont want to go to the store then use regular gasoline. i screwed up on my corners and it came off perfectly with the gasoline. i know gasoline is expensive these days. but a lil wont hurt.

tint spray
 
I think the running lights are hidious on the corners. So in my OPINION i didnt care if i could see them at all. if you dont it took me ten minutes to black both corners and the third rear. Go to a sign shop or someone who does graphics and ask them for there leftover black vinyl trace and cut it works legit.
