I had a friend do mine. He did them by mixing single stage black with alot of clear.

You get a very nice shinny gloss to them vs. the night shades haze.

A friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana, I said "No, but I want a regular banana later, so Yeah."

I have heard O' Reilly and Checker carry it but every time I have looked they didn't have it. I just ended up buying mine online, I could wait another week or so. That's probably your best bet. And to get a glossy finish with niteshades is very easy. 1. Coat with NiteShades to desired darkness. 2. Add about 4 or 5 coats of high quality clear coat. 3. Wet sand with a very high grit sand paper. DONE! And It ends up looking great. 8) :)

I bought my can of Night Shades at O'Reilly in Forest Lake for like $10. I still have half a can or more left but I may strip my tails and mask off the reverse light when I redo them. It was really windy when I sprayed them and theres a ton of dust in the clear coat. :(
