VHT Niteshades - tail light tint in a can.

Has anyone used this product?
Does it last or does it fall off?
Does anyone know if it is legal in NZ?

Thinking of using it on the new tow wagon to make it look 8) .

Cheers

Jase.

No idea ...but you can get VHT paint products from Repco. They can order in whatever they don't have in-stock.

have used it before, no doesnt come off unless thinners is wiped on it, have had cars pass warrents with it, but if you get pulled over theres a high chance you will get fined for it especially if u do it so dark you can barely see brake lights as i have seen other idiots do :roll:

Technically not legal, but if sprayed light then doesn't alter light output much, so won't be picked up (but still makes a visual change to the light unit). Needs to be sprayed lighter than instructions on can. Lasts well tho, doesn't wash off.

That shit is about as legal as having sex with your cousin.

Ok bad example, but its still gay.

Why would you do this? :? Seems pretty pointless and would just attract unwanted attention.

Thanks for the replies guys. Still tossing up whether to do it and risk the unwanted attention.
