VHT Nightshades, its a spray tint. Use it on your tails too, looks way better than the covers.

Use Duplicolor clear over it for a nice shine, plastikote clear looks like ***.

yeah i'd maybe push it with 35% but man the cops around here are ******** about it. Black cars make the tint look lighter then it is though. i notice that lighter cars with tint tend to look darker then a dark car with the same tint.
