Default DIY Taillight Blackout

So removing everything you have to remove to get to the taillights was the hardest part of this whole project. Once out i wet sanded each light with 2,000 grit sandpaper until Dull......wiped clean with Acetone... Painted with taillight blackout paint x2 (which is 14.00 at AutoZone)...very very!!!!! lightly resanded again with water and 2,000 grit.....then finished it off with 3 coats of clearcoat... I have had 5 people ask me where i got the covers from and when i tell them i spray painted them i get the weird "HUH?? wow i thought they were covers i could'nt even tell"
