I was wondering wat would happen if I just tinted my tailights trying to get the blackout look. I hear that blakcouts mekt the tailights so would this be a feasable alternative? and would it work in the first place?

I'm not a fan of nightshades, this is clear coat with black paint dripped into the clear and then sprayed on. A body shop should beable to do this for you. Side markers and the 3rd brake light are done too. I paid $60 for all 5 lights to be done and sanded and buffed.

why would you pay $60 for that? go to hobby lobby and buy model car spray tint. $5.99 for a can and youll need two cans. i put 8 coats on each taillight and they worked perfect
this was before i put a clear coat on them

Are the nightshapes, and the model car paint transparent enough to see the brake lights if I step on the break during the day?? I love this car and I'd hate to have someone rearend me

I used night shades and It works great. You can see the light still even during the day time. It doesn't affect the brightness of the light too much and I think it looks great. Just get some clear and clear over for a glossy look
