How hard was it to do?

I'm not artistic or skilled in the aspect of applying even coats or that kind of thing. Bit I need to do something to the back of my car, the damn B6s look like the backside of a melting stick of butter. Smoked tails and a rear lip spoiler should help I hope...

Also, on the topic of coating lights, has anyone applied Viellaser absorbing treatment to their lights/plates? Its like $90 a bottle and only does a few coats... I was just curious as they now have lidar that can track your speed in 0.3 seconds, and I want to be prepped for when those hit the streets... thoughts?

ya 02A4Turbo i would love to know more about it... did you have to take out the tail lights from the car or how did it work? also how much does it cost.

Sublime865, what is this Viel laser absorbing treatment you speak of, what exactly does it do and where do you spray it?
