I used to have this tint on my tails before I decided to have them sprayed instead of using film. I'll PM you the link.

PS - I have an extra set in my house, if you're interested.

Hey C, I was wondering why did you go from the reverse tail light film to the full tail light tint and then changed to the hella? Was it because you wanted more of an OEM look or was it because the tint film wasn't really that great? Thanks.

You can try the seller on eBay for the reverse tail light tint. Be aware though of the actual tail light tint with a seller that sells it for $18.99 buyitnow. I've been looking at that seller for awhile and he seems to scam ppl. He's the same seller that doesn't accept Paypal and he created multiple accounts with low positive feedbacks and some buyers stated that their CC was charged multiple of times.[/quote]

It's not Hella. These are sprayed with the shade of tint that was my choice. I just wanted a different look.

This is the one i use..

Lamin-X Bulk Film

To get a better idea on which color film suits you, you can go to www.lamin-x.com .. click on taillight overlays and click on charcoal, smoke.. etc to see the difference.
