Painted the amber tail lights with VHT Night Shades red. I did 3 coats and the top is definitely a bit darker than the bottom, but it's really not that noticeable in person. After 2 coats, the match was very close, but I could still see some orange in the sunlight.

They look stunning! I can't wait to see them on the car

They will be replacing Dectane LED tail lights. I installed the Dectane set because I really liked the all red look, but after a couple years, I'm really not liking the design.




I'm going to let them cure for a few days, then polish. I may also add some 35% vinyl tint to enhance my monochrome look, but I'm not sure yet.
