Default Ghetto taillight tint...

Has anybody tried using el cheapo window tinting on their tail lights? You know, that crap that you buy at napa, and all the other auto shops?

if you know how to do it, and you use a heat gun, it works great. Keep in mind i'm certified to tint windows, so its a breeze for me

I TRIED to do mine with the cheap stuff from advanced, but it didnt work. Im sure you could get it to work if you own a heat gun, but if not, dont even try.

why do you need a heat gun, to make it more plyable?, or get it to stretch?

It "melts" the tint and makes it form to the contour of the taillights.
