Well I just drove around a few minutes ago in the dark and they aren't quite as good but still decent. I'm probably gonna just get HIDs just to make em that much better.

And this is actual clear coat with black base in it, not the film. And I checked the brake lights, they are actually as just as bright. I made sure of that. lol

Yea, I'm getting the tint in the next 4 weeks. Planning on going with 30%. I believe 35% is the legal limit around here so don't wanna go much darker.

Thx, it's not out of a rattle can this is actual clear coat that cars are painted with, with black base paint added to it. Also I'm buddies with the guy that did it so I could always get it fixed, but it's not going to need it.

Thx bud. I'm not sure abou what type of paint and clear cause I just had my body shop do it. The 15% would look good just have to worry about scratches and all since it's exposed.

yeah, tint would probably get scratched pretty easily. there's another spray called "nite shades spray tint" or something like that. i used it on my old car. works good but, you have to use clear coat or it'll look kinda dull but, once you use the clear coat it looks great. i got it from my local speed shop. i'm not sure where you could get it online. i'm pretty sure the name is "night shades spray tint" if you wanna search for it.

Haha, it just the camera and sunlight. Makes it look a little off. It's perfect in person though.

Looks nice, but the front lip looks off. But right now comparing his car to mine isn't really close, my car is done from inside and out. But keep it up, looks good.
