Psych0matt Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I searched but couldnt find it. I think it was a green GP, 94-96, like MelsGTP, although I don't think it was him. They had their tails tinted at a shop that sprayed them in the booth. that thread would be helfpul, but not important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psych0matt Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 well, apparently he cant do it anymore. Jeremy, would you be so kind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcjredline Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 What is so "proffessional" about this tinting you guys are talking about. I must have done 7 cars with Niteshades and had 4 friends do a ton of cars and they all turned out good-Excelent. Can someone post a picture of a proff tint job on a taillight? I must be missing something. If you pay shipping & materials ($12 per can)I would do your tails for $40. I can send you some pics of cars I have done.

Like blue, red, silver etc. Very cool look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 EDIT: no, not body colored, tinting them, not painting them well, I can't find niteshades, and the guy that had his done ended up darker and shinier, and they shined light through better than with niteshades. I just know his turned out really well, and I only have one set of lip taillights, and I would rather have them done good instead of trying to use the krylon stuff I used on my front corners. It worked pretty good, but takes way too much time and patience to get them too look good, and since the taillights are so much bigger and not straight and flat, I don't want to risk it with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 his first set he and I used nightshades on, wetsanded then buffed with rubbing compound. They turned out ok, then he went to his shop and had special paint/nightshades sprayed with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcjredline Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 On a couple of the cars we have all done we never needed to wet sand but we did have to polish a few of them They have turned out dark, shiny, and the lights show through. I CANNOT paint but so far I have had GREAT luck with the NS. I think Summit has niteshades or maybe Eastwood. If you cant find something these days your aint lookin. http://motors.search.ebay.com/nite-shades Here is a pic of some of the cars I did. My first attempt We had to put some 3M finnessit on and buff a bit No Buffing No buffing whatsoever couldnt if I wanted to My friends 88 Formula 350 some buffing done. Thats all I have on my PUTER. But you get the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 here are my buddy's lights...I have done a few sets with nightshades, but his turn out with a much better finish to them...these pics don't do them justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 djcredline, those all just look like typical nightshade applications. theres no gloss or anything to it. Jason did the same work as the guy above with the sentra, which looks TONS better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
