Hi everybody, my name is Dave and i'm in BC, Canada. I got a 06 E60, I wanted to know the best way and quickest way to get good results from using that night shade VHT stuff. There's all this talk about wet sanding, then clear coating, then wet sanding again.

Welcome. That's actually my next mod I am planning and I checked out AWG's work. Looks clean but daunting.

If you'd rather pay, I believe that EuroRev can do it also. Contact John at EuroRev so he can hook you up.

Good luck.
