Look in the DIY section and save the cash. It looks easy...little time consuming but easy or talk to a tinter. The guy off 40hwy in blue Springs are good guys.

I don't like the nite-shades look, it's too matte/flat. Don't really like tint either, no matter how good it is you can see edges and it just has a different look to it. Not sure how to describe it.

oh you can definitely get it shiny enough, most people skip the whole wet sand and buffing of the clear coat. in additional to the majority of people just generally sucking at rattle cans.

I would advise against vht tho, after 2 years it complete fades away. but for me its nothing to re-spray again.

angle of our tails get too much sun to keep from fading.
