Ok as everything in technical articles there are 10 to 20 ways to do it everyone is different but i just wanna make some things clear? the masking tape is just for the grooves so some light can still get in right? and if you didnt wanna tape it off and just spray the whole entire light and get new globes such as those truck globes could you do that? can some people explain about those globes and if the masking tape is just to let some light through cheers guys

arnt "truck" globes the same?

i did mine with some satin black just sprayed some super thin coats then did clear looks awsome i also pulled out the garnish and did that to so it looks fresh painted but the colour matches the lights exactly

im not much of a ford fan but those lights are AWESOME... I love 'sir calais' tail lights, crash hot and good job man...

i have not read the hole thread but i think you guys are sparying the night shade or what ever your all useing on the out side... that ford has the night shade sprayed on the inside the same as how i have my tail lights... if you spray it on the inside it keeps the glossyness of the plastic and also cant be scratched off i will post a pick of mine they are a bit to dark for my likeing but they are not bad.

digging up an old thread but if does it make the lights dimmer and less bright? like vl boss surely your lgiths would not be as bright? cheers in advance
