    I've sen it done...might tint mine...night shade might not hold up to the bugs and such but tint can easily be replaced.

    lightson_ffe0e4f6d635fb7166e4d6aeea703f684cd8dcc7.jpg

    Used vht then PPG clear coat. Looks great but the light doesn't come through it. So they are useless now but I'm ok with that. Didn't like them in the first place

    True...

    I'd use a couple extra coats of clear to make sure and give you something to wet sand if not tho.

    Mine have held up perfect for 13k miles. But I used good quality clear not spray bomb clear.
