05 headlights are kinda smoked? Well how many coats of that black tinting spray paint do you think it would take to match that look for my tails? 2-3? And I should put clear coat on it as well right? After I finish up with my 05 bumper conversion I wanna smoke out the tails to match with the headlights. So all you paint savvy peoples out there, how many coats you think will be good?

just spray until you get there. no set amount of coats, cause some people may spray more in a coat the others would. and yes you will want to clear

 

[Double Dizzle]

Definitely clear....and like staw said.....just gotta see how it goes, but probably 2-3 light coats.

05 heads are smoked?

 

[04shark04]

Not smoked per say, but they have a darker look to them.

eh... I don't see it. I'm pretty sure it's just clear plastic, and grey plastic around the headlight assembly inside.

I'm going to see about lightly tinting them though, i'll let you know what it costs.

I am curious to see how that would turn out. I have been contemplating doing it, but I can't muster the B***s. Please post pics when it is done.

if you spray the inside of the glass it will retain the glossy look and have better protection against the elements

the 05 headlights lens is clear, I would spary on something else first to see how dark you want to make it.

 

[Yellowwasabi]

Like everyone said, spray the inside of the headlight.

I think Solo used to have some H/L's like that

I'd like to see tinted FL headlights...

Solo had chrome and tinted 04s
