yeah thats the look i was going for, i might just sand mine down to the bare lens and start over with 1 or 2 less coats of VHT. I think mine are a tad to dark.

well yeah, it takes the orange peal away ... changes the way the light reflects off them. So it makes them look brighter after buffing. But still that tail light is darker and looks really good IMO. Not a fan of blacked out ... drove behind a stang w/ blacked out once ... sun was behind us so that didnt help, but when he put on the brake i couldn't hardly see his brake lights at all ... i dont trust people's driving to put myself + car in danger like that lol
