Get the spray. *Nightshades* its a tinting spray, should solve the problem.



-Jeff
*Nightshades* Is also illegal for road use. So just don't get pulled over.

I used NightShades on my Stealth, it looks great, I don't regret it at all, It's part# VHT-SP999 through summit. 6.99 a can. You'd want 2 cans to be safe.
It's thin & runy when you apply it. So you want to do maybe 5 light coats. It is labled off road use only but it lests enough light shine through to keep you from getting pulled.



-Jeff, I like the old sig w/ your girl better than these news ones w/ no girl.
alright, I will include that picture and take one out. Thanks, for the compliment though....I didn't really think people would notice the sig.

Cool, you have any pics of how that came out? Did you do the center strip too? Only thing is, it's getting kinda chilly around here, highs in the 50s, Should I wait until spring to spray them to make sure it sticks good?

Thanks.

Edit: I was thinking vinyl, but i didn't think it would work too well with the curviness of the taillight.
Nah...just take em bring em into your garage or work area. Clean them off really good. Then spray and try to avoid getting dust on it or any other particles.

92StealthTT- I don't have any pics, If i had my digi cam i'd take some for you. I did do the center. There is a member on here that has DeathSled on his car, i don't recall his member name he has done the same thing & has a pic in his sig.

Just like Jeff "Darktrail" said, Take them in you garage or somewhere so that it isn't wendy. Clean them & apply, try to avoid dust & dirt etc etc.
that's DSMRACER that has the deathsled mod

Have you looked into getting brighter bulbs to compensate for the Nightshade? I think I'd be afraid of someone hitting me from behind because my taillights weren't bright enough.
Also, do you spray the inside or the outside?

Thanks,
Ian
I used this stuff to do my front turnsignals and my rear center piece. I like it a lot. It looks better than covers because they usually fall off after a while.

I did not spray my tailights because I knew someone would rearend me in Orlando. Now that I live in a nice little town I think I might spray them.

You spray the outside.
I'm really not worried about someone hitting me, It is bright enough to see from beyond 50feet away in clear weather conditions.
