Default My black wing.

I bought VHT Nite-shade (TaillightTinting.com - Your # 1 Source For VHT Nite Shades SP999 Tail Light Tint Spray) to black out my corner lights. After I finished with them I decided to see if it would work on the chrome wing. It worked so anyone that wants a black wing this is a suggestion for a product. I saw this product at my local auto store and did not buy it off that web site. Just posting the website to show you what the product is.

Nice job Cassidy - I just re did my calipers in a Rustoleum Iron textured fleck paint. Looks pretty cool, so far have not had any heat issues with that kind of paint. I hope you are covering your car when you spray in your garage.

Hello Everyone, Has anyone tried this tint on areas such as the windshield surround, door handles or on the fender vent fins? Or even possibly on the whole front grill?

I know lots of people who have painted these items, with varying effort and amounts of success. I am not aware of anyone who has tried this tint spray on those items, give it a try and let us know

I was planing on having the areas painted, but the tiniting looked like it might be a way to go....I may try a test area!!! (When I am committed to having it painted should the tinting NOT work)....
