It's really just our one shade that we use. I personally think it's the best median. Anything else gets too dark when the sun starts going down and away, and anything else is just too light imo, which sometimes causes it to look purplish.

If any of you local guys really wanted to just tint the red portion, I can do a custom cut on your car, and then I'll have a template for it for other members who want it afterwards as well.

Would it be possible to do just the white part of the light?

Next someone is going to ask me if I can do just half of the tail light, with the left side covered and the right side uncovered, haha.

I'll see what I can do.

yeah i like the shade of tint that you use, it's perfect. It takes the edge off the red and gives it a dark cherry red look to it without making it to dark and black. how much do you charge to tint the tail lights?

Hi Don, please PM me the pricing, I guess I would take that into consideration...

Someone should photoshop just the red part (I dont' have PS installed right now) for the rest of us =)
