    Hey guys so I re-did my tails. They were too dark for the daytime and I didn't wanna risk getting rear ended or pulled over. So I only used one coat and they turned out quite nice! First I used 80grit and orbital sander, then 140, then 400. One coat of vht and 3 coats of clear! Looks alot better then stock IMO and not too dark for the daylight. They're just right! I'll get sum pics up soon

    80 is what they had at work so I used all their stuff lol. And I don't think it did much damage to the lense since I watched it to make sure I only took the vht off. I shoulda took pics throughout the whole process bit I only had my phone at the time. I'll get sum decent pics of them on the car now if I'm not sick tomorrow

    Besides, if you did it to windows, wouldn't it be all sticky and not smooth like tint film?

    The reason they say "For off road use only" is because there are no laws "off road".

    "On road" your car has to operate like normal so having your tail lights tinted is illegal. They do that to cover their asses.
