How much does a job like this run you? How long will it last due to normal wear and tear?

Looks amazing, been wanting to do mine in British Racing Green.

The only thing I don't like are the blacked out lights on the back. But other than that I think it's pretty damn good looking.

Looks great...love the blacked out tails as well...is that 5% tint on the tails or is it deeper? That Matt came out great in the pictures too...are you thinking about putting the gloss layer over it or keeping it matt?

I've got less than $500 invested and that includes purchasing a sprayer, 3 gallons of dip, tape, plastic drop cloths, extra Xylene, and a gallon of matte clear dip (matte clear is not on the car in these pictures). I am hoping to get 2 years out of it but we'll see. So far it seems pretty resilient.

The tails were painted at a body shop. I had them add black to clear coat and it turned out great. Super nice shiny finish. Nothing like the Niteshades look.

I plan on leaving her matte. As of last weekend the remaining black parts are all matte clear dipped so nothing shiny left on the car except the glass and lights.

Haha I might copy as well. I've always been a fan of orange cars, especially the orange Aventador, and since I have the Aventador Buddy Club tail lights, this might just be my next project after some wheels.

Picking up my taillights this Thursday, how do you like them? You think they would look good tinted?

On topic, the car is pure sex, love that matte orange finish. Wish my Hot Lava was like that from the factory.
