SS Silv Posted August 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 I guess what I was trying to get at was these are shitty pics of them, look at the sky, a bit overcast. In the sun they are glossy as hell. It sucks doing all that work at somebody "nit-picks" every detail such as "I think he should have done 1 more coating of tint, a little more clearcoat, and a lot of wetsanding and they would look a lot nicer". But that's your opinion and you are entitled to that. Or perhaps I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkt71 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Sorry if that offended you bro, I wasnt trying to nit pick.. just like other people would say they would have gone darker, or when a guy lowers their truck and someone says they would go lower or whatever. No big deal man... get some good pics up I am sure they would look better if they were in the sun. Have you polished and waxed them yet? it makes a big difference.

I know, we are all guilty of doing that. That is another thing, my truck has like 8 coats of Zaino and the tail lights don't have any wax on them yet. I am going to wax them today.

punkt71 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 I bet thats it, your truck looks clean as hell and so glossy it makes the tails look dull in comparison... throw a crapload of coatings on those tails and it would look KILLER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drako Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Lookds great I recently sanded my lights down and re-tinted them. Plus I also gave it a lighter coat. And I think the law (for most places) is you can seeyour brakes lights from 300 feet. A lot of cops can pull yo over...it depends if you get on thier bad side. Looks great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hankg42 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Looks great. More and more I'm becoming convinced that I have to do this too. A black truck seems to be crying out for smoked tails! I guess it's going on my to-do list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
