How do they look with lights on? And in Reverse? Also, I see this was posted a couple years ago, how did the tint hold up?

I removed the headlight tint this past winter, it was starting to peel around the two bumps. Taillights I replaced with OPT7's. I have LED lights so output wasn't too bad but if you have the normal one's it might be too much.

Thanks for the info. I’m actually taking my car in today to have the windows, taillights, reflectors, and side markers tinted. I thought I’d leave it to the professionals since I’ve never tinted anything myself.

Got the windows tinted at 35% and got the taillights, reflectors, and side markers “smoked” with a translucent dark vinyl wrap. Now I need to get the gloss black 18” sport wheels.

I've been wanting to tint the tails since getting the car and this thread has confirmed I need to do it soon.
Anyone has experience with spray tint (like Nite-shades)? I'm worried about using film because of all the curves (poor experience in the past).

I attempted to tint my tail lights with vivid dark black film using a hair dryer but it didnt turn out well so i ripped it off and put it on the small portion of the tail light. This is the outcome not bad the underpart of it started to wrinkle but i am going to redo it because I ordered a heat gun. I plan on doing the tail lights and the headlights maybe next weekend.
