i used nightshades the first time i tinted my tails--make sure you add a few coats of clear afterwards. i think i used about 4 coats of the nightshades, but i made the mistake of not clearing them.

second time, i had my painter tint them using his mix of a little black mixed into clear coat--looks awesome (no pics atm).

Here in Virginia it's ellegal to tint your headlights OR tail lights, BUT lucky for me, I'm only here for the military, My car is registered in Texas, and my license is in Texas, so i kinda fall into the little loop haul.
My question is, how much can you actually see?

I used nightshades on my yellow 94 GT and it worked awesome...but like blackened said, be sure to get a couple coats of clear on top of it.

as far as visibility goes, mustang headlights aren't the greatest to begin with...it all depends on how dark you make the lights. I made my headlights black, so there was still a descent amount of light emitting through, but the light didn't emit very far.

See my profile pic. Done with niteshadez. I did 5 coats if I remember correctly, and planning to add another coat or two.

I have a can of Nightshades I'm planning on spraying on my '94 this spring. I was gonna go with 3 coats and about 3-4 coats of clear followed by wetsanding after every step.
