Default Niteshades & HID fogs on

Picked up a can of Niteshades and went at it. Masked off the reverse light, layed it on heavy on the bottom and lighter on the top. I'm pretty happy with it but I think the left side is a little bit darker than the right.


Also ordered a set of 35w 3000k HID lights from DDM. Going to do 6000k in the headlights. Love em.

It's great really. And contrary to popular belief, it is usable light and not just cosmetic.

Do you think if you put on one or two more coats of niteshades that the lights would be strong enough to be clearly visible? Thinking about getting some.

Put as much as you want and just add a tailgate light bar. That's what i'm doing when niteshades arrives.

Was it difficult to install the HID fog lights, I have seen many post on doing the headlights install but haven't ran across any that did the foglights.

You should throw some niteshades on your fog lights, the Hid's shine right through it really well.

instead of nightshadeing the exterior lens, can you use it for the inside housing?
