First, a big thank you to Steve (Embassy) for all the VERY helpful advice on how to do everything..
And now here are the pics.
Looks weird..
The area where the "magic" was happening:
Here is my arsenal:
Lights are prepped and ready:
Testing out the equipment:
Lets begin.. after 2 coats:
And finally.. Before:

Sunlight got this one making them look a little darker than they actually are.

Cost wise, I spent money on the following:
Nite Shade: $22 (Hazardous material shipping ran me $10
)Masks: $5
Dupicolor Truck/SUV Clear Top Coat: $5 - $10 ( I can't remember)
Mom gave me the tape and the plastic tarp, so I didn't have to buy that, so I guess you could say those would run about what.. $6 - $10?
If I wanted to, I am sure, but I would have to remove the layers of clearcoat on there first probably. Then do it a little darker, then reapply the clear coat. Maybe someone more experienced could comment on how to do that.
Also, they aren't pitch dark in person (As they appear on the pictures), the sun was out in full force and my photo skills are the lose... They are tinted and you can definitely tell that.
