Got some decent shots of how dark and shiny the tinted tails on the Regal are. This is black paint mixed with clear, not sure the ratio though.



Only thing I would have done differently is not tint the reverse lights. They are useless.

I've used VHT on my old sunfire - 2-3 coats MAX with highly leaning to 2 coats lol... the sunfire was black and during the day u couldn't see the red in the tails but at night u couldn't ever tell they were tinted because the red showed thru quite nice. i plan to pick up a new set of tails for my cav and do them proper like with sanding and everything on the vht with 2 coats again.

But hell for about what $15 a can and u can do 2 sets of medium ish sized lights its the way to go i think.

Yeah most states if not all are busting people for tinted tail lights. I live in NJ and in jersey youre not supposed to have any tint. But mine are lol. It looks nice and ives your ride a unique look. Ive been pulled over for my windows and theyve just warned me about the tail lights. A good idea is to only tint the tail light and cut out the turn signal or do the turn signal at a much higher percentage tint so the cops stay off your back a little
