Taillight Tint
http://img.tapatalk.com/d03604f1-4f4f-15ef.jpg
Here is my first attempt at tinting the taillights. I have to say it takes a lot of patience. I enjoy how it looks but im not too satisfied with the little details so im gonna take it off and give it another go. What do you guys think? *Note, this is not photoshopped. Actual tint |
I would go with the model lists style where the turn signal is left clear. But thats what I like.
Good job on the tint can't wait to see the the finished product. |
It looks much better than stock.
Did you do this with a spray or an overlay? |
Looks great!
|
How difficult is it to get around those corners?

I did the red film overlay |

its pretty tough, i did it using a blow dryer to stretch the vinyl. But there is a lot of readjusting and stretching to do when doing the corners. Getting the bubbles and unwanted creases out is the hard part. I recommend a second pair of hands to help. |
That's what I thought. I wanted to do a wrap, but I knew those corners were going to be difficult. I would rather do a wrap over paint though. Was your wrap the spray with soap and let it sit to stick or was it a peel and stick?

Spray with soap, its a lot easier to manage... once it settles you can mess with the remaining slack to work around the corners |
Anymore pics?

That looks so much better than the chrome bezel. Looking forward to the updated pics of round 2.
