Anyone know a local shop in the Katy/Houston area that tints tail lights/blinkers? Thanks for the help.

IMO the VHT looks better than any piece of add on tint or cover out there.

if you paint your tail lights with black paint no light will get through them at all. VHT with clearcoat is what you want to get what your describing

You mix 2 parts clear 1 part black it's how mine were done, doesn't black out any light :beer:

wow that does look good. Alot better than most of the other pics ive seen. I guess im gonna give in and try vht. Exactly how did you go about doing it?Spray all the coats of vht desired and let it dry then spray clear? Or what? How long did it take from start to finish?
