    So recently I picked up a ProCoat Paint Sprayer and ive been experimenting with paint/tinting.

    Was wondering if there would be any interest in tinted tails, corners, lights, or painted parts. I did go to college for auto body so I do have an idea what im doing lol..

    Right now i have a stock of my tint mixture, black, red, white, silver, and of course clear.

    Along with any interest what do you guys feel a fair price would be? Id like to get a set price for tails and other custom deals can be set-up as well.

    I will be doing to the JY to get 3-4 sets of tails to tint and display. Ill be doing coats of: 3, 5, and 7 for tint options.

    LMK what you guys think.

    You need to sign up to be a vendor selling a service like this.

    it's kinda not my responsibility to look into being a vendor so that you can sell a service.

    Drew you pay the vendor fee and set it up yourself.

    Do some digging in your user cp. You can find a lot of stuff in there
