Once it's on is there any way to take it off again? Do you know of any photos of it on a Civic? (Preferably a Silver civic coupe?)

Wow, lil dark, eh? Lol
We don't have either of those stores here.. I wonder if they have it at any of the Canadian auto parts stores.. like CarQuest or something.

Re: smoke tail lights
if it looks dull after spraying or too dark, you can polish it slowly using rubbing compound and then scratch-x. dont do too much because each time it will take a bit of the tint off. if you want it to last, consider using a clear coat on top of the tint.

personally i wouldn't paint my stock tail lights because what if you get a ticket and then have to remove them . i would buy some cheap ebay tails and spray those so you have the oem to fall back on. or you could get the plastic covers that stick on or even the sticky tint they sell on egay that's removable.

like crap lol. and it starts to peel off after a while. on some tails, they sell the thick vinyl tint film that is actually quality stuff, but you need to have pretty flat tails without curves or bumps. check headlightarmor.com

if not, the best way to go is to get a film tint on it. they sell it on ebay for pretty cheap.
