That is really cheap. My buddy charges $25 a light but luckly did mine for free

We sanded mine with some sort of stuff in a tube and scotch brite then mixed some black in with a lot of clear then buffed. They turned out really shiny or at least as shiny as the rest of the vehicle paint.

cologne trick

I tried the VHT route, hate it...now need all new tail lights

try getting it off with ****** cheap cologne. trust me... it might sound weird but it works fir niteshade. also use some rubbing alchohol.

I was thinking about giving you the tail lights off my Yukon and buying myself some new ones... but after seeing some of these guys tail lights, I will probably get the stockers done up.

I'm not much help here Slappy... just figured I say hello and crap all over your thread.
