What's up everybody. After seeing pictures of people who had blacked out amber corners, I decide to do mine. I bought VHT Nite Shades and Dupli-Color Acrylic Enamel clear coat. I applied a couple coats of Nite Shades (turned out really good) then a couple coats of clear. When I applied the clear coat, it turned the whole amber corner white. Did I do something wrong? Also, people say I should have sanded them down. I bought some new corners and want to start over again. Anyone have any tips or DIY's on how to do it correctly? Thanks

 

hey . let me know how this turned out. i wanna do the samething. but learn from ur mistakes lol

 

just do transparent black sprays from testors. no sanding required, no clear coat required.
VHT sucks..

 

"Need help with smoking amber corners"
Don't smoke them myself, ....they're too hard to light.



I agree with ^ use testors.

 

so transparent black spray from testors. where can i get this stuff. how many coats??? im sucha noob!

 

I actually finished my corner lights a few weeks ago. They turned out really well. I did a few coats of VHT NiteShades and a few coats of clear coat. I actually got tired of the blacked out corners, so now I'm running bump clear corners.

^ Dude those blacked out ones look NASTY, you should keep em on.

 

^^cant even see it lol

 

Haha yeah. I put the blacked out corners back on today. Also did my taillights with Bluebatmobile's GT-R style overlays.

 

how did you end up getting them the way you want and not having them come out white like before?
