If you're worried about it, drive with your lights on.

Reese

OK first lets applaud Sanjuro for making such a great post..

This is my Story

Well it didnt go AS smooth as I would have liked. I couldnt get the damn clip off between the bumper and the tail. I was PULLING and TUGGING and BENDING and I just stopped. I didnt want to risk hurting my love

So I did it the womenly way
Enjoy the pics!

Before


Taping her sexyness up


I did use a whole can on just the tails...funny cause I thought theyd be darker with the whole can...


I was checking to see if ummm I was even


Baking in the sun


After wet sanding


Adding Clear Coat


again Clear Coat


And sitting for the night....



Ill take more pics once I reconnect the lights and remove all my lovely plastic and clean her all up


OK I couldnt wait anymore so I pulled the plastic off and wiped her down and reconnected the lights. I wont be able to do them darker right now cause we are expecting rain but if I decide it wont be till after the weekend. I still think they came out pretty good.



GOsh Damit shes SeXy!

Here are my tails on my BSP...





I live in Bellflower/Lakewood and this area is overflowing with sherriffs. As soon as I finished it up, I stopped at an intersection and the police pulled up behind me. Haven't been bothered yet, and cops see me all the time.

VERY Nice that is some sexy tail...s!!! Nice job Reese!!!

Sanjuro

Fantastic job everyone!

I see Reese is going more subtle. :D


Soulquarian, I freakin love that VHT tint on black. SWEET!

Reese

Thanks Jester and umm yeah im going to do them again after the rain....blah lol

julez007

does the VHT NS have to be ordered online, or can it be bought and some auto store? i live in So Cal.

Sanjuro

I can't speak for all national chain auto parts stores, but I've never seen it at Orielly's, Auto Zone, or Advance Auto. Not sure about Pep Boys or Napa. There may be a custom shop or something that may carry it near you, but I would recommend phoning ahead before driving around to check.

Anybody else from SoCal that can chime in?

ecxb242

I'm not in Cali...I'm in New Hampshire, but I stumbled upon the VHT last night by accident when I stopped by a performance auto parts place looking for trim rings for my xB...I planned on doing this to my xB but was waiting to order the cans until I found them last night...what luck!!!

With that...has anyone done this to their xB? I plan on doing it this weekend but looking for any advice before I take the plunge...

Thanks!!!

Reese

gcxandy

how long does the drying process take?

Reese

umm its freaking HOT here so it took maybe 4 hours? but after the clear coat im not touching it and it can sit the rest of the night.
