Painted! With VHT Niteshade Red* I did a lot of coats to make sure it has a solid deep red look, then top it up with a thick glossy clearcoat.

It looks really good. Though I must ask does it have a glossy finish or that shitty grainy spray bomb finish? I can't stand the spray bomb matte texture...

Depending on the process it should come out looking like a body shop sprayed the pieces once they have been polished. Back in the day I used VHT Nightshade paint to blackout my tail lights. Dumb move as it got me a ticket but I did have shiny black tinted tails. |

Nice.
Could you take a video and post it with brake lights on/off and indicator on/off. Here in New Zealand we have some tough laws on modifications so I would like to judge if the amount of light would be legal before I do this to my own car. Thanks |
