Wow, that looks great. I kind of want to do this, but I don't want to ever have problems with law enforcement.

i opened up one of the lights using a heat gun..it worked alright but i feel like it scraped out too much of the adhesive..i should probably stop worrying about it and pop the other one in the oven haha.

^^Along with all the gloss to your tail light.^^
If its that ventshades junk, you're gonna need to use 800 grit wetsand to get all the black off, and gradually move up to 1000 wet, and then i do 1500 wet, dry it and polish it.
if its the FILM, it shouldnt take more than 10 minutes and some goo be gone.

I'm a hack
if its nightshades by VHT its not gonna come off, it has a chemical reaction to the plastic and once its on there, its staying.
