I used Meguires leather cleaner afterward to get anything left over that the damp rag missed.
Also I to tried some shitty Fabric pen from the fabric store and Hated it. It worked like the Sharpie but man the color was .

Anyways Nice Job and you should post your video in the DIY section as an option to members to follow.
Holy Shit...I'm glad I took the package

Added Headlight Armor tint to all my lights. Mostly wanted to get the side markers and fog lights since they really stand out if they are not tinted, but figured might as well do everything in one shot.

Washed and waxed it yesterday, and there's already a layer of dust on it :'( blue ray is such a pain to keep clean.

Nice. How much did you pay for side markers tint?

Very cool idea. I painted the insides of my fog lights / DRLs a gloss black.

I bought two kits. One with headlights, turn signals and fog lights, and one with tail lights, side markers and reverse lights. Whole set cost me 109 shipped.

They sell the side marker kits separately for 17 and change.

Thanks SSRS55 I am doing little by little but should have it done this weekend. To each there own I just wasn't feeling the fabric pens as it didn't hold up against Adams Products. Time will tell but so far so good and I love the difference so far. I also posted it in the DIY section now
