Was it painted or was a film applied?

Hey guys,

Just got a silver A3 and think dark tail lights would look cool...anyone know who does this kind of stuff in Vancouver? Cheers.

i used that spray stuff you get in the cans, VHT nightshade was the name, i put 3 shades each, then let it sit for a few months, im going to clear coat it soon, its all swirly and says it doesnt require clear coat, but i want a perfect look so im gonna do it anyways, heres a pichttp://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._1130412_n.jpg

nice outcome on the lights. when i sprayed my lights on my old car i could never get the dark look, i got more of a red shade maybe becaues i was spraying on top of a red lense. clearcoat to finish. it will finish the job nicely :D

ye, im gonna clear it, but u cannot use laquer coat, or it will strip the paint right off lol, u gotta use enamel based clear, my freind used a laquer clear on his vht and he came back 10 mins later, the whole tail light was stripped clear on the shade lol
