sooo a "gt roush" is a gt that has been remodeled by Roush, however you send it to Shelby in vegas? im lost

oh yea and back on topic, im not a fan of the black bezels at all, it looks like you went to a junkyard and got flat black bezels and just threw them on, totally ruins the car. Just keep it stock

i was talking about the blue one behind him lol

i did my taillights the same way mustangmatts are and i must say ive been considering removing the spray tint and having our window tint guy tint my tails. I used the VHT rattle can tint and it turned out good but its not very glossy, i would like it a lot more if it was a glossy black but mine turned out kinda flat-ish

wetsand + polish ?

97Dustang · April 24th, 2010, 01:36 AM

yea but im lazy lol, i tried the wet sanding stuff and it got rid of the orange peel and it still turned out kinda flat. its like a eggshell finish, i want mine to be extremely glossy to match the car, i may hit them up with a few coats of clear

wannabeimportkiller · April 24th, 2010, 08:39 AM

They get that flat look to them once you have sprayed them a couple times. If you keep it to like 3 light coats they wiill be glossy I didn't think they looked black enough with just 3 coats though

skuzzy · April 24th, 2010, 12:31 PM

i did mine with a couple of coats, wet sanded, and a couple of coats of gloss and it still came out dull

97Dustang · April 24th, 2010, 04:35 PM

yea we have a window tint guy at our work and he does taillights and they turn out awesome, you can get them however dark you want and they look perfectly smooth and glossy, i think i'll have him do mine.

Just for the record... Mine are Professionally tinted tails.... That first picture is with the whole back of the car soaked in Tranny fluid and why it looks dulll.. I had blown a tranny line and it soaked the WHOLE Damn car...
