when you put the spray tint on, its all like gritty and stuff..so in order to get the gloss look you have to add several clear coats..so after that youj wait for it to dry, get a sponge with some water and 1500grit sandpaper...wet the tail light and scrub til the bubble blemished from the clear coatgo away. than you use compound to take out to minor scratches in ur tail light. looks almost from the factory..

you put it on the outside of the tail light? i thought you were supposed to put it on the inside?

its pretty easy. its only heald on by 2 bolts. but i guess you would probably have to take the spoiler off then the light off..that sucks.
