I have done lots of work with VHT. Take the lights out, clean them with a rubbing compound, a micro fiber towel, and spray a nice and even coat. You don't need to sand or anything of that nature, it worked to perfection on my black gt.
ok i will try just that
thanx for the help guys

I used Nite Shade on mine. They look great and my tails are pretty dark. They actually werent as dull as i had expected... you CAN just tape them off and spray a coat or two, but it wont look as nice as if you sanded and polished them. I put on 4 coats and it ended up being too dark, but a little sanding did the trick. For best results, take them off, wet sand and spray, and then clear coat and polish. I didnt have a buffer either, but did them by hand just using a rubbing compond and they look great. Here is a link to both ways... take your pick, and enjoy. Take a look at this for a proper guide: http://smoke-tail-lights.howtocar.net/tutorial.html
How easy is it to remove? Let's say I spray it on and get a ticket
I'm curious about removal too, but because I think I want to redo mine.

I'm ordering a set on the 1st when i get paid. I'm all for DIY stuff...but for only a few $$$ more, I'd rather fork it over. Paint and i don't mix that well

cool, thanks. I've realized the biggest trick is really just keeping them clean. Once they get dirty at all it starts to mess with the finish. Hopefully a fresh coat will solve that, thanks again for the tip.
