I am liking the tinted tail lights, but don't want a permanent solution. Hence I ordered some tail light tint from ebay. Application is a bitch, cant get it perfect lol bubble as hell. No one locally I know does this, hence I am trying to DIY it myself...

But before I proceed, and perfect this what are your guys thoughts on how it looks...

Yes I will be doing the lower lights as well.

looks good from here :thumbsup:

Heat gun, soap, water and an old credit card? That didnt work to take out most of the bubbles? One of my customers had that film done also, and it took almost a month for all the bubbles to vanish. But thats with our lovely Cali weather, in the middle of summer. I guess your bubbles will be gone by March. LOL. :P

I'm indifferent.... not sure :think:

The lower bumper reflectors are throwing me off...


no one locally out there tint's tails? must be hard out there for a pimp :P

Oooo I didn't know some of those bubbles disappear lol. I used that method Sam but for some reason it didn't turn out quite as I expected :( I will try again lol

LOL there's many things out here we lack, we need better Igloos n such too :P hehe

What's the thoughts on the color? I'm go ahead and do it all will post pics by Sunday night :)

as long as it matches the tint on your car/windows..you are good..can't tell in that light...

nothing worse then having tinted tails that don't match the tinted windows IMO...

On a dark color it looks good - what is the reduction in light output? Wouldn't want someone driving in your trunk because you couldn't be seen!

None that I could see. They look as bright as the non covered ones, I will post a pic.

Looks good in the pics. Can't wait to see the final results.

I gotta find someone to do this lol. Did one taillight in 1.5 hours lol still not 100%...

the place that tinted your windows..they don't do tails?

Nope, called a few tint shops, they said no try bodyshops. Called a few bodyshops and they said yea, but they use transparent paint, not film. :( I don't want a permanent solution incase I dont like it anymore...

Im glad someone tried the tail light tint off of e-bay and posted the results.

I went the permanent approach and had the tail light painted with a tinted clear coat, but I also have a set of stock light sitting in the basement if I ever decide to go back to stock.

I can post pics later when I get on my desktop computer.

looks good so far

Looks good.

Found someone to do it! Heres the installed pix.
