Yeah, I probably moved a little slower across the light as I was spraying than I should have.

How much does that tint affect the lights' performance? Are they significantly darker when they're on? And i'm lovin what you did with your grille! simply awesome

I used the same stuff for my lights although in a thinner coat. My truck's tail lights are that dark though.

Wow impressive. I think I am going to do the same to my bowtie, I hate that washed out brown color. Just a heat gun/hairdryer and the bowtie will come out right?

if your talking about the bowtie on the grill its actually bolted in so youll have to remove the grill and then youll be able to see the speed nuts holding the bowtie on.(i cant remeber if its 1 or 2 bolts tho)

I too was referring to the bowtie, I didnt see the point in taking it all off, I just taped and sprayed!
