Sorry, yes.

Plastidip usually takes 5-6 coats for solid coverage. Each coat is very thin and virtually see-thru.

Just practice on something before you do it. Most times, the first coat is light but uneven.

Practice.

Only other option would be to remove the lens and lightly paint the inside of the lens, but that won't "tint" the entire lens.

Well ..
Guess I'll try the dip .
Easy enough to peel off anyways.
And got lots of it laying around the house

That's a little tricky.

5-6 coats peel off nicely, one thin coat won't. If you need to take it off, just rub it off with your thumb or a terry cloth. It's only a small surface and should come off easy.

looks good. That's exactly where I want my king ranch sitting. I'm running true dual flowmaster 40s on my mine. I love it.

Your truck is at just the right angle, that it looks different than the rest. It kind of looks fuller down the sides and a little wider in the front.
Which is how... I was hoping Ford was going to design their new body! So, in other words, your truck looks damn good to me.

Added a tux black 6 bar grill today it looks great!

Will be vinyl wrapping my bumpers and boost bars. As well as blacking out the badges with vinyl layovers. I've also got black tow hooks to install but since they were from an 04-08 I need to cut the rings off and re weld them further back as they are 1.5" longer and stick out too far.
