I need to smoke the corners on the e30. I went to Autozone and Advanced which is 5 minutes away. They looked at me like I was retarded and never heard of the stuff.
I know I have seen it on the shelf all over the place when I was not trying to buy it. What gives?

So, a typical AutoZone/Advance experience, then. ;)
It's not too far up the rungs, but have you tried Pep Boys?
Or maybe Summit Racing down in South Jeebus? I've read somewhere that they had it at one time. The online catalog doesn't bring it up, but it may be worth a phone call. :ponder

eBay is your best best. I did a search (I'm bored) at the big chains and it doesn't look like they carry it.

No go on ebay from what I can find. And I know for a fact I have seen the stuff when I am not looking to buy it.
Online problem is I will be forced to pay some hazardous shipping fee.
This sucks. I thought I would be fine at AutoZone and nope!
They both said try Pep Boys. Where the hell is a Pep Boys locally. I don't remember seeing any. Oh wait... just down 9 in Roswell...
Or on Piedmont at Lindberg.

Also on 5 just north of Piedmont in K'saw, and on 41 in Marietta, just south of Delk, across from the end of the Dobbins runway (up the street from Matt's little scooter shop).

Goto Hobby Town on Satellite Blvd. just past Old Norcross, across from Gwinnett Place Honda, they have "tint paint" for the lexan bodies for the remote control cars, it works really well.

Tint paint is not what I need. That is not really designed for extended outside use in sunlight from what I have gathered from my research.

I have a full can. I ordered two, but one was enough to do all my vette's lights and my brother's car.

I also used it on my previous car (M3).

Halston, I just talked with one of our wholesale customers who manages an O'Reilly's and he said that they all carry it and should have it in stock.

VHT would be cheaper, I guess, but this method looks much, much better. It's just over reduced black paint, coated to desired tint, then two coats of clear. Very glossy and no blotchiness

Your taillight cannot be coated if it is plastic. It would need to withstand 400F in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
