Don't expect someone to reward your laziness. There are only 24 posts for you to read through!

krazy....I sanded mine b/c I screwed it up the 1st time around. To MY knowledge/personal experience (anyone feel free to chime in), the finished look will be more or less the same. Its gonna be matte, you need to apply lots of clear coat to get a little gloss out of it. Sanding it from scratch will help apply the paint easier/more even and with less drips. But if you're careful enough and dont overspray it should be fine. Hope this helps some....


tphskab-if you're too lazy to read through this, DONT attempt this mod b/c it requires time patience and a perfectionist's attention to detail....The paint is cheap, its the quality of your work that needs to be expensive.

I know I'm going to sound like an idiot but where do you pick up the smoked taill spray? I haven't been able to find it out here.

finally got the nite shades today, and i managed to do it in 30 min. i am an impatient person so i kinda messed up on a small part of one piece but otherwise, the rest looks good. i only did 3 coats on each piece because i dont want to get pulled over for having them be too dark.

 

[tgv121281]

Looks good man....cant believe you got it done in 30min...nice....I preferred a little darker, and I've had it now for about a month and NO problems w/ the po-po(mind you I drive over 70miles a day to/from work, so I'm on thr road ALOT)...Glad to hear it worked out tho!

 

[krazykarni]

thanks for the tips...i couldnt have figured out how to do it correctly without everyone's insight
