Got the rest of my lights tinted (3rd brake light, and all four fender lights).

Where did you end up buying the tint from?
Is it the Lamin-x product?

Looks good!

What's the next mod?

It's actually not really tint. I had a guy airbrush all my lights with a clearcoat/black mixture. Then you just treat them all like paint. However, my tail-lights will need to be re-done. There is a little dip where they cast the lights and an air pocket was under the clearcoat and it cracked the clearcoat, so we have to fill the dip with plain clearcoat and re-tint the lights. Haven't fullly decided on my next mod - depends on what money I get saved up. :smile:

Very nice!
I like how you could see them, but they didn't stick out like a sore thumb.

Your on the cutting edge again Sugar!

When is the next Pavillions run?

Thanks. They still light up at night which is important too. I won't be making to a Pavillions show in a while. I have 2 more car shows this month, one in October, and another one in November. Plus I work on some Saturdays. I plan on going on the fun run next Sunday though!
