niice work i did the same thing last month to mine that stuff is frigin sweet i dont get how it works siince it goes on so dark but the light still shines through ...i noticed u have a similar problem that i did, around the very outsides of the outer lens there is some red shine. lol i dunno if we both missed the same spot? either way im fixing it this weekend , its kinda annoying but once again niice work!

corners never hold paint as good as a flat surface so its just alittle thin thier.....
i plan on spraying them like that but without the tape and then sand off all the tint on the outside and do all the other preping and retinting them again later on.
its realy sweet how they look so dark but the light shines right thru! AMAZING!
i forgot to take ashot of my reverse lights.... so not sure what those look like now... lol

RE: Taillights finaly tinted what ya think?
thanks. ya if ya think the back end looks black now just wait till i get the new H honda symbol and paint it black and snap it back on... and remove the EX... and still trying to decided if i want to remove the CIVIC or not.... might keep it chrome as well as the exaust tip......
and thats all that will be chrome on the rear end... as well as the new rims next year which will be black with a polished lip.....
tho i do think when i do redue the taillights i will go with only 2layers instead of 3.... just to keep them alittle lighter tint...
also thought about doing a liscence plate tint with some bright white leds behind it..... MAYBE that is...
might just keep it as it is now tho just window tinted lightly.LOL

RE: Taillights finaly tinted what ya think?
ya i highly advise to anyone if ya want to try tinting your tails definatly use this stuff! dont even try that ebay crap!!!!!!
heres a picture of the ebay crap i tried TWICE!!!!! with exactly the same BS
as you can see ITS TOTAL CRAP!!!!!!!
it looks ugly as hell! fish eyed, dull, not even, and blocks ALOT OF LIGHT!
for only that much tint sprayed on them it should show alot more light! i swear that crap must just be cheap cans of black dull spray paint!!!!!!!!
its preaty safe to say spend the few bucks more
that crap costs 8bucks plus 10bucks for shiping... 18bucks for that crap when i only paid... $22.90 shiped
for 5bucks more.... ITS A NO BRAINER!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=200002272430
thiers the link to the turd crap i bought! CRAP IS SO CHEAP ITS JUST A 1/2sized spray paint can with bare can! no label at all!!!!!! no instructions!!!! and total crap....
ALSO it takes two cans to equal the ammount of the nightshade stuff. so actualy its cheaper!
just trying to help anyone out that is thinken about buying that crap to save a few bucks tellen ya ITS NOT WORTH EVEN TRYING that crap!
