Why in the world would you send your tail lights out to get done by someone else? They are the easiest thing to DIY and the results are identical to someone else doing it except you save a ton of money

true unless this is something beyond your typical paint/tint.

Ive tinted tail lights in the past and consider myself handy with paint prep and technique however i wasnt comfortable with cutting open or not having a stencil for the lights and i like having things done right the first time.

There i said it, im getting the GTR style AND the midnight style all in one. I know its not the first time each are done seperately but im pretty positive its the first time its been done together

As soon as i get them back ill post pics or im sure someone from 180custom will post pics up

^ How much longer?

And I don't blame you for sending them out... Headlights are easy IMO, tail lights are a lot harder to get perfect.

I'm curious to see the final result, 180 does nice work so it should be sick.

180 does the absolute best work period (speaking from experience)

Personally I think it looks better smoked all over, however I do like seeing new unique stuff. So on that note good job
