Hi guys,
Not sure if this is a stupid question but Ive been really keen to tint my lights since I got my car, but everywhere I look and ask is saying they have discontinued making night shade. Not sure on what else I could use...any suggestions?

If that fails. Go to any auto shop that does paint mixing, and ask them to tint som clear with about 5% black ... Should do the same thing ... But instead of being flat colour, it will have a nice shine too it...

You could start out with a smaller tint and see how it looks ... I remember with primer we use to tint with colour for about 20% max ... So never tried this myself ...

No probs ... Get him to record the mixture though ... That way it will help us all if we need to get some made up ... ;)
