Hate to bring up old posts but... Do you think one can of Niteshades will be enough, and what is a good over the counter clear rattle? I've heard good and bad things about testors clear. I will be doing this myself and not a bodyshop. thanks

a few local import shops sell it around here. you can get it at your local hobby store and get a transparent black it works good. but the clear coat needs to be a automotive paint . the rattle can clear just wont hold up over time.

 

 

one can is enough for one or two sets depending on the darkness.

 

i highly recommend not using rattle clear , it will not last. if you must pay someone to clear them with an automotive clear. it iwll hold up much better.

i followed Chase's how to to a T and like he said, the rattle clear doesn't hold up. mine is fading after a few months. The tint still looks good and the reflectors still shine through, but he clear is starting to look dull.

I am thinking about doing mine this weekend. How do you remove the tailights?
