ok, i bought a couple cans of niteshade today and i was wondering how you remove the reflector from that panel with the license plate and how you remove the chrome strip from above. i searched, but found nothing.

/\ EXACTLY WHY I HATE THE NEW NITESHADES!!!!!!! That finish is beyond terrible, it's not your fault the stuff just sucks now.

Oh, and too dark for a black car IMO....any other color the blacker the better, but on a black car i presonally prefer a dark red tint(like mine ).

Whether you have the old stuff or new stuff, you still don't know how to spray it evenly for crap.
