Yes, I dont remember what it was called because I borrowed it from a friend. I just kept putting on layers until it was DARK.

I personally would have shaved the letters off so the lights were real smooth. At least then it would look totally gone.

I did it to mine, but did not cover them in black. I love the difference it made. I am going to do the third brake light soon.

I have two cans of VHT nightshade... I use it for various projects, and it works great. Yes... VHT is usually on Backorder via Summit... but I got mine off Jegs, and got it in 3-5 days... Summit was 2 months.. BUT they gave me the can for free because I waited so long. They also gave me a t-shirt and hat...

If you buy it online, expect a stupid "hazordious meterial transportation fee" its like 10 bucks.
