    I did my 07 tails, and third brake light. That was until inspection time rolled around. That didn't fly.

    Word to the wise, more coats equals really dark. Really dark equals no bueno.

    Yea, I'm gonna light tint my fogs, but I'll never do my tail lights again, even though I want to!

    Yeah I'm guessing there's no problem with tinting your turn signals if you don't do it too dark

    I did mine with three light coats. At first they weren't as light as I wanted them to be but they look good no after sitting in the sun for a summer. I'll get some pics tomorrow.
