Your can looks like mine. All I did was like 2-3 coats from about 6 inches away. I even smoked my front markers and haven't had an issue.

I'm not knocking the dark lights, just don't really understand it thats all. I don't really get the clear lens lights either. To each their own.

I actually was pulled over in my old s10 for spraypainted lights. There was no fine, they just made me go to court to prove I got it off. Nothing serious. It was a state trooper that did it. My local police haven't pulled me over in the xj
