I modified my tail lights today using "Nite Lites" tint. This is 2 coats of tint and 4 coats of clear over that but no buffing has been done yet.

To get the desired look I used Mail box letters (Zero's) to get the ovals and center cut-outs.

What do you guys think? THe car is 98 XK8 and it's Anthracite with Oatmeal interior. I also tinted the windows the other day.

I can post some pictures of the process if anyone is interested.

Enjoy. Comments good or "oh my god what did you do to your Jaaaag" are welcome.

I like it - I'd stick to doing the inside of the lenses but I don't know until I try it, if I try it. Anyway, I never liked the way the XKR tailights so closely resemble those of a Taurus and other boring cars.
