I think I've seen it before, I'm just wondering what its called and how you do it? Thanks a bunch!

 

The reason why I dont like blackouts is because they smooth the tails...

Whats wrong with this stuff?

By the way, this is for my friend Nick, not me... I SWEAR!!!

YOU CAN PROVE NOTHING!!!

But seriously, its for nick.

 

That looks good, I would also like to know.

 

actually, lightly smoked tailights look good.......and i mean, LIGHTLY

 

It seems like it would be kinda hard to get them both perfectly even...

 

Old pic, but you get the idea. It's not hard to get even coats on them.

 

"nite shades" It's made by VHT. See avatar.

 

look at it from a safety standpoint. when you "smoke" your taillights you make it harder for others to see your brake lights and tail lights and they could possibly not see you and BAM your rear ended.

The VHT spray is made so that the light is easily seen when you apply the brakes. That's why it's called "taillight spray paint", and not "spray paint". Just don't apply 10 coats.

 

Heres somewhat of a comparison, the black Si is mine and the blue one is owned by a friend. I used a product called Foliatec and it came in a spray can which I bought from Manchester Honda, http://www.manhonda.com

I think it looks good smoked not black, don't make it too dark.

 

smoked amber. i used a model paint, its transparent black.

 

You can find it in many hobby shops

 

does krylon make a stained glass black? i was thinking of making my orange corners just a tad bit darker

 

my local Gi joes sells it for 8 bucks, its called night shades
