Used VHT Niteshades to black-out the taillights. They came out REALLY dark after 3 coats...probly would've been just as good with 2. Clearing andfinal sanding/polishing took awhile to get right, too. Just so you guys know, use 3000 grit for final sanding and it comes out way better than 2000grit.

Thanks, man! It is coming along nicely. I am still envious of some of the other builds on here. Now I gotta get the side molding offa there and figure out the best way to tint the center brake light

Saw a few shots of guys with their tails tinted so i thought i'd throw one up. I used two coats of VHT plus two light clear coats and one wet clear coat. Have a full side shot of the truck back a page or two also.
