I've been tinting the lights on my car and will share what I know so far.

I bought a vinyl treatment kit for all the rear lights and was pleasantly surprised with how well it turned out. They are not as dark as the rears on the white Mustang posted earlier in this thread. That is good because here in Cali you must have red lens' on the rear lights (not blacked out nor clear with red bulbs). My lens' are dark red, but still red.

The fronts I am having a bit more problems with. I ordered 'smoked' headlights and halo fog lights and when I got them I thought they sent me the wrong ones. The only thing tinted was the reflector of the light and only barely. I returned them. Now I am looking at getting halo head and fog lights and going to the place that tinted my windows and putting a light tint on the lights (after I see how they look installed and don't change my mind).

I would also recommed getting sequential tail lights. They look really cool and the inside light will join the other two acting as a brake light.

Question

hey ONF1R, I was wondering which automotive darkened clearcoat you used because I'm really impressed with your lights. Also, do you have a write up of how to tint all the lights? I'm thinking about doing it myself on my tail lights, rear bumper lights, and turn signal lights, and save some money. Also, pictures that go with the write up will help me out ALOT.

Thanks.

Wow that looks great ONF1R. I have the vinyl tint on my tails and love how clean the paint looks. I would like to make a little project out of this. If you have time to do some sort of a right up that would be awesome.
