You can put a coat, or two or whatever you feel like, of clearcoat to give it a shine too. That will require a lot more work though, if you have to remove it because you'll have to wet sand it off, then wetsand it back to it original shine, then you'll have to spray a couple coats of clear on them again.

IMO, it looks good, both jobs
Nightshades looks good in applications like on black cars like yours IMO. I've seen it done on other colors and it doesn't fit in with the color.

 

^ is EXACTLY what I was saying. I have a red car and it just wouldn't look right.

Though I think you should have masked the TALON off and not tinted it. THAT would have been hot.

 

Lol, that was the color I had in mind too, lol. Now, I have seen the entire light assembly Nightshaded on red cars and it looks pretty cool IMO, just not in strips like paintball did.

*BTW, IMO, you should have kept the lip on the rims chrome

 

See and I would have to look up local laws on that too. THAT might work but does it obscure the color at all? Know what I mean? I might give it a shot if I can score a decent set of lights for the car cheap. Maybe see if someone has some cracked or broken ones just to test and get used to spraying it...

 

Looks hot.. KUDOS..I never really like the talon rear end till now. You made me see a different light lol.

 

here is a pic of my before and after shot of my painted rims. i dont have a really good shot of the after because i dont know where it is but youll get the idea.
