Well I just got off the phone with my buddy whos a wholesaler, and he says he can get me the header panel for $20 before noon, and headlights for $10 at the same time.

The ****ty thing is, I already ordered the header panel the other day, and Jasper has a set of headlights he was gonna sell me...

Ima see if I can cancel the panel if it hasnt shipped out yet.

i've done spray tint on a couple pairs of headlight now and i havent had an issue with the light beam. however a friend of mine wanted to try it on his own instead of letting me do it for him. he did a questionable job at best and his light beams are all sorts of F'ed up. so now he's paying me to redo his

Well I was planning on only 1 coat on front and back, just so it looks a little more sinister instead of white

the backs i did 4 coats, 6 on side markers. head lights i did 2-3. i've done 6 cars so far. the first ones i did i didnt wet sand. i figured id wet sand a pair, it looks like it was meant to be that way but you have to use like 2k grit sandpaper very very lightly.

i have pics on a car i did recently, it was an ex's brother. he wrecked his car so i fixed it and tinted his lights while i was at it.
