Tinted my 3rd brake light yesterday using VHT Niteshades and a coat of clear.







I'm seriously considering putting a coat or two on the HD tail lights to make them a little darker.... thoughts?

Do it, you'll love it.

 

Looks good, go for it and do the tails.

 

Thanks kinda cool! Looks good! Did you just use Niteshade or something else?

 

Looks great!

Im going to do it soon to my third brake light, but i was also worried if the HD tails i have would not look as dark.

 

rngprerunner:
Copperhead64: Your fears are justified, the HD tails don't look as dark anymore. It's not that they look light, but it just looks like they could go a shade darker still.

I'm going out of town this weekend, but maybe next weekend I'll take a shot at the tails.

looks good

 

coooooool

 

Has anyone used the Nightshades on the headlights. Instead of taking them apart and painting the insides?

 

Thats not a good idea. The headlights would give off too much heat and the niteshades would fade.

 

Yea... I caught that after I posted the question... guess I should have read a little slower... lol

Thanks!

 

hey, i'm in North Raleigh. If I bring mine over, will ya help me darken mine?? hehe

oh yeah, looks good!

 

Did you consider doing the Recon LED 3rd Brake Light? It looks good though.

 

Thanks for the comments all.


Yeah man, no problem. I'll be outta town this weekend and next, but we can work something out. Shoot me a PM or e-mail.

I looked at Recon and Bully, but I figured I'd give the Niteshades a shot, $10 vs. $60 or $100. If I didn't like how it turned out I would have picked up an already smoked aftermarket one.

I have the recon smoked one and still put a couple coats of niteshades on it. Looks good on black trucks.
