<span style='color:red'>should i sand the design down so its flat or just leave it and paint it with the design</span> if ya don't know what im talkin about here it is:

</div>

nah keep the ridges and are you night shadeing the lenses?

[The F.B.I]

yup just like in the pix... 8)

[pinoyesv6]

i'd fill the ridges in with some filler and then sand everything down smooth.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(pinoyesv6)</div><div class='quotemain'>i'd fill the ridges in with some filler and then sand everything down smooth.</div> any specific type of filler? i was thinking the same thing because once all the layers of paint gets on there it wont show as much making it look like something went wrong... but what kind of filler should i use?

Nice! Sorry about being such a noob and all this but night shade means?? The lens looks black in the day and night but when the lights are turned on, they are still visible as red lights?

Btw whats the brand or model of your exhaust, with the nice evo looking round tip. Im thinking of getting one myself.

[thareelcauz06]

I think they look good i did the same thing but in the pearl white color to my car about 2 years and i think it looks tight.

[The F.B.I]

niteshade is transparent paint that will let pass through at night and a lil bit during the day...

hey thareelcauz06 do you still have em do you have any pix?[/b]

[SkylineG1]

I say that you do it

[The F.B.I]

Ok. Thx. So the effects of nightshade is at night, the red lamps can be seen, but in the day, the light is black in colour? Am i right?

Anyone can point me out the model/brand of the exhaust the thread starter is on? Looks really good.

[The F.B.I]

im getting lil craters from the body filler i tried sanding it down but i can still feel the lil holes shuld i just fill that with body fill and sand that or will the layers of paint fill it in....

this is the chrome housing for the lenses:


since it looks plain i was thinking of painting the lil squares and go for something like this:


so what do you guyz think leave it plain or go for the black squares? and if you dont know already the lense are gunna be black!

[o1naturalhigh]

would it matter if you painted the squares or not?? i mean...are you gonna see those through the lens???
