That's alright. I will just go with it and see how it turns out i guess.

I've never done the vinyl cutout. Sorry

alright yeah i think i'm going to stick to vinyl just in case i have to take it off for any reason. i'm just thinking of how i can do the circle cut out on a vinyl sheet. the heat gun is no problem..the vinyl i'm getting is for the cobalt tails so it shouldn't be too hard to evenly stretch around but hey if it turns out bad, i can just peel it off. no big deal. any ideas on doing the circle cut out with the vinyl?

I've done both. But the nightshade is better. It's not as hard as you think. No smudging or smearing. Light sanding to the lights, hit it with one coat first then wait aminute or so and go with another coat. For my color I'd do five to six light coats. Do both lights at the same time so they're the same color. Vinyl tint is a bit hard cuz you have to heat the vinyl so u can stretch it over the side. Making sure u get no creases. Let me know which way u go and I'll help

ahh alright. i was hoping to stay away from the paint only because i've seen too many people fuck it up by streaking the paint and what not. i can't tell from your signature all too well but it looks like it turned out pretty well. let me know what you think in terms of nightshade vs. vinyl tint.

I painted mine with VHT nightshades. Measured my white revers circle and Made a circle on tape with a compass. Cut it out and applied to the light. Then painted

do your tail lights have sticker tint on them or are did you buy smoked tails like that? because the tint with the open white circle looks great and was hoping to do something like that to mine.
