toxic donkey Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I haven't been on the board for a while and it has come time to start putting a little time and effort into my truck again. Seems like I remember a a guy who was getting really good feedback on his work. I know many will say do it yourself, but I watched a friend smoke his on a 350z and they looked pretty shitty. I would much rather pay for a "factory " look. I see there is a guy on ebay but not to sure about that. any help would be appreciated.

Blown 346 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I used the guy on ebay and his work is top notch. He uses real automotive paints and clears so you will never have any fading or yellowing issues. I used this guy. I dont have one complaint. They were perfect. http://www.ebay.com/usr/smoked_lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akslowroller Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I have a guy here locally that does them for all my trucks and my friends too. Here are mine about a year after they were done. if you can't find anyone else I can pass along his info to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprayed99 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Maybe you were thinking of my work. I have done a lot for members here and several for local dealerships and other shops.

They were perfect. http://www.ebay.com/usr/smoked_lights Had a buddy with his lights on a dodge truck. Nice work other than he just mixes base with the clear so you dont get the total UV protection. You can tell this by the micro splatter apperance in the paint. The lights I do don't have this issue and are painted using PPG DBC line of products and cleared with DCU 2002 High Solids clear.

JSTAL Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Every vehicle i own sprayed99 has done the tail lights. You wont find better quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 He used UV urethane clear on mine and I havent had a issue. No micro splatters on mine. So far so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"UV urethane clear" doesn't specify anything. All clear coats have a UV blocker. Even Advantage and Shop line clears block some UV. Do you know what micro splatter is?

Blown 346 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Just giving my personal experience. He has perfect reviews and I havent had a issue with mine since I have had them. Just trying to help the OP out and give my two cents. Not trying to say who's lights are better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I have to explain that.... micro splatter is when you have little dots all over the place.within the painted surface. Edit.... Maybe I didnt have a issue since he sold me his own taillights and third brake light off of his own personal truck.
