I got 17 tickets on my record for exhaust and tints as is lol.
 
I've got red on order but I have to take my car into auto body this weekend. If they come before I'll put them on and post pix. Otherwise it'll have to wait a week when I get my car back. Poo....

Done. guess what I voted.
 
Personally, I like OEM tails for now.

those look like they have red tint on them, leaving the turn signals white. somehow it looks different in that picture than stock. it actually looks like what i want it to be....

if you compare to this pic:

you can see that the Tails have a clear plastic cover and it creates a clear outline on the outside of the tails. THAT clear outline is what I want to get rid of around the Red areas.


so if you actually Tinted your tails wkqkqkfk then hook me up :p

hey guys i got the red tail lights and it was an epic fail. they were impossible to put on me and my friend tried and tried and it was almost as if lamin-x cut it but didn't take into considerationg fitting it over that hump on the tail lights. sorry guys it just wasn't happening, the paper was the thick to mold around the hump, there just wasn't anyway to do it. lamix should have made it a 2 piece of sorts. so it ended up on the trash.

I second that. Was very difficult to get to fit and didn't look very good in the end. Not a very nice clear red, although I didn't let it dry long before I ripped it off. Will look at masking the reverse and painting, but that will take more time and prep else it might look like roadkill spatter... :p

Let me know if find any good two multi piece or other alternatives JC.

Same here with the smoke kit. Epic fail. The hump is insane to get around! I've done many overlays before. I couldn't do this one. I gave up.

i think i might just go with a light spray tint, ive done a few of those and usually turn out very nice. and yea it wasnt a nice clear tint, i was disappointed.
