Can I also get a quote for the tail lights thanks, so you just going to send us 2 sheets then right to cover the whole head light? Any suggestions on where we should start on the tail light since it has that one curve which is pretty hard to curve it.

I got mine from an ebay seller as well, pre-cut. I took it to my tint guy and he was telling me that it's ok if it looks small. The tints used for the lights are not regular tints and are stretchable to allow for the contour of the lights. He installed the ones I bought and they look great, I did the head lights and taillights.

It honestly is the same for me. I guess I'd start from the center/back of the car and then pull it out towards/over the side.

Realistically, at that point, it doesn't matter if it's precut or not anymore, haha. It's ok sometimes if the whole piece is being covered. However, I've dealt with cars that had various sections cut out for reverse lights, etc. Stretching then could end up causing distortions in them and such.
