Tinting Your Tail Lights! (VHT Nightshades)
Hey guys, I don't know how many of you have done this before (all of this is new to me :P) but im about to start a project on my 2003 GT (thought I might as well post it for those who were wanting tinted lights) I will be tinting my Tail Lights, Fogs, Headlights, Quarter Markers. :tup I met a guy with an 04mach 1 who had nicely tinted tail lights and I asked him what brand they were, and he said he did it all himself. I hope this topic hasn't been brought up before, I couldn't find it in the search bar lol! I'll write up what you need, provide some links, and hopefully post some before and after pics! An awesome and cheap way to tint your lights :D
Product needed: VHT Nightshades (10$), 1000 grit sand paper (4$), 2000 grit sand paper (4-6$), Duplicolor Sandable Clear coat spray (10$), painters tape of some sort, and your choice of a car polish and wax, or a headlight refinishing kit for the final treatment. Here are the links! Enjoy the cheap awesome tint! How-To Tint Your Taillights With Nightshades - YouTube How-To Clear Coat Over VHT Nightshades - YouTube |
I did my marker lights and 3rd brake light with the precut film from American Muscle and they turned out really nice.

Im just stingy or something haha, didn't wanna buy the precut for some reason its like insanely dark looking, but in the pouring rain, and some garage time after work I removed the tail lights, sprayed em and clear coated them, polished and wax and holy mother do they look good!! Very impressed for 37 bucks best way IMO.
