Tail Light Smoke: Need Your Opinion!
i just finished puttin on the first vinyl on my left tail light, its 35 percent tint, i also did the 3rd brake light. it took 3 hours to do one light, its not a perfect job there are some bubbles only if your looking for them. its very different than what most ppl have posted on the forum, everyone goes extremely dark. im looking for a subtle change.
i wanna know what you guys think about it, how does it look? before i go spend another 3 in my hot garage with a blow dryer. thanks!

took me 3 hours to do mine also. lol...let them sit in the sun for a few hours as well.
they are very reddish right now, but 2 weeks or so in then sun will get them that smokish shade.

haha thank you razz, idk if i would go that far but im pretty happy with how they came out
i also noticed theres not much info on the layovers for the taillights on forum, so if anyone has questions let me know (pm or something)
my garage wanted to charge 200 to put them on, so i decided on principle to try it myself haha, how hard could it be? just make sure ur ready for some fustration

Perfect job! Glad you did not go black with it. That just does not make any sense to me why someone would do that. I'd want people to see my rear lights, no inhibit their view of my actions or garnish the attention of 5O.

thanks guys, yeah i put these vinyls on in last may, still holding up just fine
i feel like this percentage of tint hides the almost "ricey" ness of the euro tails while still keeping the lights features visable
its not a bad DIY, you just need a sheet of vinyl and a blow dryer, i get compliments on the tails everywhere i go, i suggest to anyone that was thinking about doing it, to give it a shot
