I am looking for some fairly inexpensive, but still good spray on window tint to do some lights...any suggestions on what I should get and where I can get it?

Niteshade works well but it requires some finish sanding and polishing to look really good.

Did my tails with it,

^There it is. Prep properly like you would for paint, spray light, even coats, allow to dry, wet sand, clear, polish done.

I'll push the clear coat. Use it or it looks flat and stupid.

I used 3M polishing compound on mine. It takes a fair bit of effort and you have to do it repeatedly but that's how you get a nice finish.

After the tint is applied it should be polished and then you'll have to polish it after the clear so you get a nice clear shiny finish.
