Awesome choice of color. Smoked tails look good!

2568 x 1956 pixels... That's 4x the size of my screen and I don't have a small screen, either.

Good job. Are they matte? Might want to add some clearcoat to make the tails a bit more glossy...

Looks matte.... I'd rather it be glossy.

thats what i think its not really matte, but it is a lil bit, It was pretty glossy just when i put the black on, then once I put the clear coat on is when it became more matte, I dont know why though?!?

 

[kurker]

Was it a matte finish clear, or did you spray the clear before the smoke was completely dry?

I concur.

no its not a matte clear coat, but its possible that the paint wasnt dry, but I dont think thats the problem, becauase I was pretty sure that it was dry before I put the clearcoat on. Is there a clear coat I can put on that is more glossy? But its a bitch to get out the lights, you gotta take the whole freakin bumper off!

The first time doing something is usually the most difficult. Mostly discovering things that you didn't even know were there and what not. But since you already removed the bumper once before, the 2nd attempt should take you 10 mins.

Ya your probably right, but as far as the clear coat goes i just bought regular clear coat nuthin special, is there a glossy kind or something that I should get?
