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

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
