That looks really bright compared to when they are off. That's exactly what I am looking for, they shine real good through tint, not what I had expected at all

Where did you grab the VHT? I checked Cheker and Autozone on my way home and they didnt have it.

I noticed that the whole conversation was about paint. There is tint film that is made for taillights. I got mine from metrorestyling.com. They are the vinyl kings. They also have different colors for your headlights. Good stuff

I know they make snap on covers as well for the tails and headlights but to me those dont really look all that great. With paint, you can put it on as light or as dark as you want to go and they look much cleaner in the end IMO
