Smoked my front turn signals yesterday. Followed the write-ups Darren linked to and they turned out great. I did 5 light coats of the VHT and then 2 medium coats of clear. Wetsanded after the VHT and then again after the clear dried over night. They are pretty dark but you can still see the lights through them. Cleaned the front end up nicely.

And this is with the parking lights on.

The lights the tint company messed up that I re-did. New tails arive Tuesday for the second round of tinting.

Daniel Day, Did you wetsand and buff them?

To get the best effect, I'd suggest 2000 grit wetsand and buff.

Yes I did, but honestly, I could have done a better job.
