Default Nightshade on corner lenses?
Can you put that VHT nightshade stuff on the yellow turn signal corners? Or is that only for clear plastics? I wanna make sure it won't look like garbage if I put it on my stockers.

Jason, I just did it to my '96 and it looks fine. I nite-shaded the front signals, rear quarter panel lights, and all 3 brake lights.

I did mine and put a few coats of clear on them. They look really nice and the clear gives them a nice, glossy look.

Yeah, just make sure you hit 'em up with a few coats of clearcoat after you get the nite-shade on there.

Hey man, if you need any help or anything when you get back, or would like the use of a garage, you're more than welcome to use mine. I know it's kinda hard to do stuff sometimes in an apartment complex parking lot. lol And I'm only about 5 miles away from you. When are you supposed to get back?
