:) Yeah they look great!

Are you guys going to do this in the future again at all? I may get another set and see if you can do just 1 coat instead of 2 sometime in the future. They look great, but I'd really like to see what 1 coat would look like and if I like those better, than I'll just sell the other set.

Yeah man, we can do this any time. It may take a little longer as once we get one set we try and find others to do at the same time.

That's what someone used on the taillights I bought and it looks worse then horrible.
I used it on my rx7 and it came out great. I had the car for 5 year and it never faded at all. But good prep work is the key.

Is that 2 layers of paint on the tails or 1? I think its too dark! Id probably only do one if I end up doing this.

Grill looks sweet though!

2 layers I think. They look pretty dark in the bright sunlight, but at night they're really bright. Vid I took last night for the potential buyer:

2 coats is what I got too. I think at some point in time I'm going to get some different ones done lighter. Either just 1 coat, or 2 very light coats. The light still shines through very well, but I just don't want to hastle with the popo's.

But it does look sweet man!

All the taillight got 2 coats. We can defiantly do them lighter too. We can adjust the tint ratio or just do one coat. The caddy looks great tho!
