ok guys so i have my foglights tinted yellow, now i wanna go for a different look, i want the smoked black. Ive seen them on Damons solara.
Now is it a spray, tint? or what is it that i need to buy to make them look like that, because i already have the nokya yellow fogs but i want my fogs tinted black now.
Thanks.

Nando, Greg's brother Albert could probably hook you up with a good spray job. Hit Greg up for details.

Kick a$$ Nando!
Gona murder out your Lara?

I used some PPG stuff my bodyshop guy recomended.
I even recoated the tails i bought from Latin. Nothin against his work, I just wanted the tails to match the fogs.

So do you plan on starting with a fresh pair of fogs? ...or sand down the yellow ones??

^oh, cool. Your not gona have to sand off the yellow.

Its like the nite-shades stuff but better, to me atleast.
PPG is a brand, so I assume there is all types of paint that they offer.
Ill get somemore info on it when I go talk to him again.
You need a gun to apply it, and it looks dam good.

What I did was scuff up the fogs a bit.
Applied a single coat, and let dry.
Then went back and wetsanded, applied another coat, and let dry.
Last applied a clearcoat, and let it cure for 24 hrs.

I was in a hurry to go the TX meet so thats where I stopped at.
There is a few fish-eyes that I can see, so I plan on wetsanding, and applying somemore coats.
