I just did all my lights with VHT night shades and it's amazing the light shines through like they aren't painted just find the write up on how to take your front bumper and you should be set

+1 on the Nightshades tint. I did my front turn signals and rear sidemarkers and they look great. I did 4 coats of VHT and 3 coats of clearcoat. Rear tailights are next.
