I dont know yet, I did it yesterday. When I did it last year it didn't. It's paint and it shouldnt come off.

The pactra works way better than the VHT stuff. The Pactra goes on shiny and smooth, the VHT leaves the lights with a rough looking finish. I tried them both and I would have to say Pactra FTW.

yeah, it looks way better than the bright a$$ red stock color. Just dont overdo it. I tinted mine lightly, which is still dark but you can still see the red in them and I think thats important when it comes to the cops.
