Ok, who remembers this?  I know I do... I have decided I dont like them, BUT... I do like them. Here is the deal I like the GT and want to keep the appearance of them being there. What Iam thinking is this... Nightshades, right over the top of them. So I could just paint over the whole thing leaving the decals in place and clear coating it all. OR, I could paint one coat Night Shades, take off the Decals and do another coat. This would give a very slight difference in color, and would reflect form the reflector if viewed at the right angle, but be subtle enough to not detract from the rest of the black out thign Iam doing. What do you thing, how would that look?

What kind of stuff are you getting to tint your tails, and where do you get it. How much does it cost?

Hmm, that stuff is pretty nifty, I might have to do that sometime. I thought the only solution to tinting tails as to take the lense off and tint them from the inside, or send them to that one company and have them spray tint them (don't remember what the site was)

leave it on and paint over it, or one coat, take it off, one more coat?
Iam thinkin the latter.
