My F-150 update thread, yes ik its a Ford loo
Haven't had any major offroad time yet seeing as how the stock tires are pretty lame. Small 235/60-16s. the most offroading its seen is hauling things around the farm when I'm there. I hope to have newer tires by the start of winter but haven't decided yet seeing as how these have some ok tread.
I love the way the knights crest is in it! I still have all the stuff just htink I need a little more practice. Correct me if I'm wrong. MY question is did you just use the lens tint or did you get one of the spray gun tops to put on it and use. I think my problem was overcoating them at first because there were spots I'd missed that I went over. And with the width of the spray I oversprayed parts that were already covered making them darker. I already got a fix it ticket for blacked lights so they're always watching me lol.

i just used the can,
my process was a real light scuff with 1000 grit,
wax and grease remover,
adheasion promotor,
2 or 3 light coats of the night shade
2 light coats and a heavy final coat of clear,
getting an even coat is definiatly a challenge with night shade due to the natur of it, i was afraid that i had some darker spots but all in all it turned out pritty even
for me the crome on them is what is killing it for me thats why i said do the red VHT to make them red insead of the crome and then maybe smoke them with black
i actually did the knights crests largly becuase the center is fully clear and reflective at stock specs so they really can't compain about them, got pulled over a few weeks back and didn't say anything about them,
