97CuttySupSL Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 no it doesn't dry smooth as paint, it'll scatter the light beams and look like hot shit, JMO if you are to try it i'd do it on a junk set first I have never heard of anything like that in my life. Maybe if you dont use it right... Mine are pefectly smooth, and I can take pics to back it up. Light pattern is exactly the same too. Doing what Shawn did to his Regal isn't really going to have the same effect on a Cutlass, since the lenses aren't clear. And if you will notice, he only painted the chrome part where the light DOESN"T reflect. On the Cutlass lights, there isn't really an area like that. exactly the cutty doesnt even have a clear lense to even notice the black housing so blacken out the lenses would be fine if they were sprayer correctly??

jeremy Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I would NEVER spray niteshades on headlights.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 It's a Cutlass sedan.... the front end are ugly on those nothing you can do about it. Swap on a coupe front end (mini-quad lights) and it will look better. And please re-read your writing about 5 times before clicking "post", cause it's terrible.

ToroToro Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Wouldn't be that hard. Fenders, bumper and headlights is all you would need. I'll even let you in on a little secret to get the side moldings to match the coupe front bumper "ribs"... first gen Bravada. I would never use nightshades on my headlights either. It's too dark and in my experience, it goes on like shit. Pactra RC tint spray owns all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteCarloChick Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 ahahahaha ok.. I thought so. And nobody wants to help someone that can't type coherently. It just makes you look uneducated and not worth anyone's time. At least that's how I view the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 i don't know how in the fuck people would nightshade thier headlights, and not get them to be fucked. Night shade does not dry smooth, i don't care how light of coats you put on, i've used it many times, many. 97 cutty sup, relax,and drop the attitude take your time to type correctly and take criticizm for what it is. I am only telling you these thigns so you don't fuck up your car, and make it look like rice. Relax, and don't bite peoples heads off when you don't get the answer you want, this is a public forum, with a lot of opinions. I would not use night shades on your headlights, it'll look like shit and your light output will be dramatically decreased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarloChick Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I would not use night shades on your headlights, it'll look like shit and your light output will be dramatically decreased.

97CuttySupSL Posted April 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 maybe i will try and make some sort of a cover using plexiglass..and im sorry for "biting heads off" im just sick of going to any forum and getting shit for not knowing all to much about my car or w's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToroToro Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I reiterate, Pactra RC tint is the way to go on headlights. It goes on smooth and doesn't reduce light output significantly if you dont slather it on. A heavy coat will look like shit on a red car anyway. Looks smooth to me. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v624/torotoro/april6int044.jpg[/img] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v624/torotoro/april6int042.jpg[/img] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v624/torotoro/completemar28047.jpg[/img] I dont imagine plexiglass covers looking very good unless you find some really really thin stuff.
