Hi,
I looked on rvinyl.com but couldn't find the eyebrow and tail light (clear part only) tint film, can you direct me towards it please.
Can anybody help?

Thanks, I did see them before.

From the pics of yours I thought it was just the eyebrow tinted and on the rear just the clear part tinted.

I have those sidemarkers, and I think they look real good, especially the white leds. I thought I wasn't going to like them at first, but at night, they're just beautiful.

I liked the white so much that I changed my turn signals to bright white as well. Turns out that white is legal here in California. (Per Section 24953 a)

I had my tint guy come to the house and give my M5 the once over. When I asked him if he could tint the tail lights while he was at it, he said it's not the same kind of tint he uses on the windows.

Looks like I'm going to have to buy the kit and DIY. :/

I see that you added the RPI scoups. We sell sooo many of them and I love hearing people's testimonies about them. Tell me how you feel the difference.

A lot of people asked v_therussian about sticking the euro sticker then tint on it, which he tinted then put the euro sticker. So me and v_therussian talked about me doing it since I'm about to start it. So here's some picture of my car tinted.(headlights and taillights)
Hope you guys enjoy the picture, first time posting mods and pictures....
Will post better pictures after I wash my car, now to just get some rims and kits..

yeah if you want to tint your headlights/taillights you would have to call around tint shops, rarely places do it because its harder to tint then windows.. But good luck with it just take your time bro dont rush it or you will mess up and use a hair dryer because heat gun is to hot it will stretch your tint like crazy..

yeah the side markers are nice but it sucks that it wont stay on when you drive, only when you turn so i might do a DIY on it since I'm going to start to convert my eyebrow into white LED like the guy on this forum....

RPI scoop really gave a boost of energy which I can feel it pull more better, would recommend any forum/ non forum people to get it. Heard if you add the RPI exhaust it would even boost it up more which someone posted how much gains you get..
