I used a product called Night shades...It says for really dark do three coats. I taped the turn signals, rear fog, and reverse lights, did one coat, then removed the tape, and did a second coat. I followed it up with a clear coat. I left my center unsmoked for safety...

Nice! Don't know where you are, but I have to think that driving through the Rockies with the top down in the summer is fantastic. Been to Denver, Boulder and Breckenridge...what a beautiful state!

I Like the plate but I don't see what's so bad *** about on a pretty much stock car with tinted tail light?

Nice plates.

I had vanity plates for a while, decided to return them before renewal. While it can be cool, I think staying more anonymous and drawing less attention is better (especially from cops). I'd be lying though if I say that I wouldn't consider getting one again in the future.
