taillight tinting

[BOSS LX]

Anyone know of a local place that can tint some taillights? I know I could do it myself, but looking for a factory finish.

I am pretty sure that was Crash Customs but he moved to Arizona. I wonder if maybe Jim at Authentic Auto sprays lens.

Andy, there is a guy on the Corral the will do them and they look badass. However he is not local. He's done a ton of other peoples lenses. You just ship them to him and he has a 2 or 3 day turnaround. Just another option.

Yeah, crash moved. I can call Jim, not sure I want to bother him with a small job.

Andy @ Project Two did mine on the jeep and they turned out awesome. They are right down the road from your guys shop too. Turn around was quick.

With some time the vht doesn't look bad and has held up for years. but if i were to do it again i think i'll mix my own clear with a few drops of black and see what i can get out of a spray gun :)

That looks real good. I say just give it a shot yourself. It seems more and more people are doing it, and it usually comes out good. If anything just try it on a crap set, for a test run.

vht sucks. mine are all faded and cracking. need to get them redone soon.

If you find somebody to do it, maybe we could all save some money and do it all at once. I have three vehicles I want to do it to. Otherwise I am going to have some clear mixed with some drops of black and do it myself.

LOL I was kidding. I am going to do it myself after automotion. I like the look of it.

[lilws6]

you'll need about 2 cans of vht 2000 grit sand paper water and buffing stuff :goof i finished mine off with plastix

This needs to be done with urethane and a catalyst, or it will have very little longevity. Boss, I likey small jobs....

Jim you have a pm

I tint lights myself I use PPG base/clear so it will have the same finish and durability as the rest of your car.

What I have done is, you get any color you want in a spray can. Get the can warm so it atomize the droplets better. Put very thin coasts on tell you get the tint your looking for. Put 4 coats of clear on. That's it your done. If your looking for a flawless look. Wet sand with 1500 and buff. I have done this multiple times. The best is when you tint the same color as the car. I did a silver probe and it came out awesome.
