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!

I think it looks great. Its subtle enough that it darkens them up a bit, yet they arent completely blacked out to where they are unsafe. The people who matter will be the people who notice, which will most likely be only 8 owners. I like it.

i can see the slight darkness to it, i just don't see the point of doing it if its so subtle that u would have to point it out... i guess i just like flashy things. im not bashin them, just wont do them myself

Yeah, if I were doing them, I would probably end up tinting them a bit more than that. Sorry, didnt meant to jump on you. More or less saying civic ricers wont notice, but who cares about them.

i am tired of seein hondas drivin around with primered bodykits that r either held on by house screws or zipties, or hearing the "fart cans" from a mile away cause the idiot behind the wheel decides to wrap each gear out just to make that annoying sound!

Looks good!
I am kicking myself for not seeing this thread before trying a DIY yesterday. I sure could've used some help! Spent about half an hour with the blow dryer only to tear the film. In a weird way, I was glad when it happened. The thought of having saved myself at least a few more hours of agony!
