Tint tailights and debage?

[brianpetao]

Thinking about debageing, dropping an inch and tinted tailights, maybe new taillights any oppions?

[rcboy514]

By drop an inch you mean lowering springs?

I say debadge except for the nissan burger on the back, and use VHT nightshades to tint the tails. :-)

Great looking above ... one more

[brianpetao]

yeah lowering springs, and i dont know i dont really like the burger on by its self lol. but both super clean.

How's the application for VHT Nightshades? Is it just spray on?

[GrayCoupe]

just spray on, as always preparation is critical, clean with alcohol to get all the dirt and grease off the lights and apply light even coats to achieve desired tint. I cleared and buffed mine afterwards.

[rcboy514]

My procedure was about the same, cleaned with soapy H2O, wet-sanded with 1500 grit, then spray to desired darkness (I did 4 coats I believe), and then for a matte finish like mine don't use clear, but for a shiny-er finish use 2-3 coats of clear.


*also, just debadge to your liking, I thought it looked a little plain without any badges since my car is a lighter color like yours, but do what YOU think looks good........here is a quick PS of mine w/o any badging......

Looks good.

B@t

[brianpetao]

[Bizzare]

how did remove the "Nissan" emblem on the trunk??
was it just like removing the Altima badge?

[rcboy514]

yeah pretty much, just use some floss. If it's cold out or you are having trouble, try to heat the emblem with a hairdryer a little bit and then try the floss method.
