Okay, as some of you may know I painted my tails b.c I didnt like how big they were.

Well now I want them tinted.
I am going to wetsand them probably in the next few days. I need to know from your experiences what is the best tint to use? I did a search but my coputer is being gay.

thanks alot....

call them up and ask them to cut you 2 pieces sized 12"x27" for the tails

i've heard the "nightshade" tint is pretty decent.

thats what i've seen used more frequently on the boards here.

Well I would have to paint tint them because I have to wet-sand it. I think it will be too faded. But I dont know, never wet-sanded before.

my advice...if you havent done it before, dont try it on something you care about.

best bet would be to pick up a set of tails from the junkyard

get some RC Lexan tint spraypaint from your local hobby store. its cheaper than night shades and works great.

clearcoat will definately help the longetivity of the tint.
