Just put the last coat of clear on... then tomorrow to put them on and buff :D


Will post more when it's done. Critique before I finish? I think I mighta done it too black in an attempt to make it even rofl

edit: And as they dry, they seem to become more flat...will more coats of clear help? Buffing / waxing? How do I make sure they're shiny...

Looks smooth with no runs though! I think it'll look alright...if any lights shines through


Good stuff! reps

Thanks bro! I'll post up some pics later this week when they are finished (taking my time I want them to look as good as I can make them)

Reps to everybody for feedback (not that it's worth much lol)

I really hope not, if so then I'll just have to order another set of lights. They aren't so dark since they dried...but they're still pretty fuckin dark lol

Thanks for the comments guys :)

yeah your not gonna get the shine you want, but the good thing is that since its rattle can you can pretty much wipe it right off :goodjob: and i think you can see mine in the sig, they are smoked but not dark enough to give that GTO cover look, but pm me if you want em done :D

LOL I was thinking about that. Black with a blue polished lip... but idk, I'm not sure if I'm really feeling black rims anymore. I do want to smoke the inside of the headlights though
