Gen5 Yay or nay project?

Um I think I'm gonna get around to this, on thursday but I wanted some insight. I want to lightly smoke my tails + led bar I photoshopped what I wanted the final result to be. What do you guys think?

Before:

After:


Ideally thats how much darkness I want. Maybe a bit smokey on the turn signals but not too black.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know how difficult it is to remove the VHT nightshade stuff from the lights after applying it? Does it leave any permanent residue or cause any permanent damage? I want to use the stuff to lightly tint my headlights and taillights but I want to know if I can go back to stock relatively painlessly.

I'd say do it.

I don't like the VHT crap though. It's very difficult to get a consistant level. I've used it before with success but have had to sand it off a light once before. I'd just get overlays.

I think if you use it. Your gonna have to sand it down + do the headlight restoration trick to fully removei t. Why don't you find some really really light overlays for your head/fogs
