Why would you pay ANYBODY to do something you can easily do your self in a leisurely couple of 3 hours?? There has got to be at least a couple of threads on this topic.

The thing is that I already did paint them myself once but it didnt come out exactly how I want them. When I sprayed them with clear coat they got all frosty/matte kind of feel; then I tried to polish the hell out of them and frosty look did go away but then one was darker than another one. So then I put on another layer of paint to even them out but the paint seems be fading away. Plus they were never as glossy as some of the cars I have seen on the road, not sure if their lights were painted or tinted.
