Man that looks really nice. it looks so good that i just ordered 1. so all you do to apply it is 3 or 4 coats right i wont have to get anything else? but did u do the reverse lights or did u skip that.

I skipped the reverse lights because I wanted a little contrrast. But you could paint them if you want.

I like it! I plan on doing my headlights soon, not sure about the taillights yet. It would probably slow the yellowing process if you painted the back up lights too. That's part of the reason why I want to do mine. But, like I said, I like it. Looks good!

I like the looks but not the possible safety issues. I am not a safety freak by any means, but there are some chances you take and some you don't IMHO. I have been situations were it was very hard to tell that the car ahead of me was stopped waiting to turn left (and not using their turn signals) because they had tinted brake lights. This resulted in a panic stop at least once. The same goes for head lights. i want to be able to see as far ahead as possible. One of my next mods will be upgraded head lights, HID or premium lights ???

those look good on the rear but not so good on the front. wish sumone would take the taillights and make them clear with leds. i would do it myself, but i've been tryin to sepreate my front lens now for a week. the damn things wont come apart, so i can do a retro hid conversion......

I think they look great with Black cars or Silver with windows tinted to complement the look.
