They were not cut very well. Some parts still showed red from the lights. Also the precut tint would not fit on correctly and some parts were stretched while other parts are fine. Bubbles were annoying near the reverse lights and the only way I was able to take them out was to cut the or poke holes using a razor blade and using a heat gun to shrink the tint. Plus for the price I might have well just sprayed it. Spraying looks 100 times better and I can control the darkness. I sprayed my old GT, should have done the same to this one.

Looks good bro!
Did you use soapy water in a spray bottle when you installed the tint?
I installed the tail light tint and 3rd brake light decal on my 05 Stang w/ no issues. I experienced only a few small bubbles.

I'm no stranger to tinting. So for someone with out experience and getting some like mine would pose for some trouble. I got them from American muscle. I also got my third breaklight tint from American muscle. The tint was stuck to a way paper and some how it got soooo sticky that the pre glue on the tint got stuck on my tint. It ruined my third break light tint. Yes. I used soapy water, wasn't shy either. Using my tinting tricks I have zero bubbles. I would rather just spray.. The black out piece was from eBay. I'll post a link up on a few.

I hear ya bro!
I purchased the tail light tint and the 3rd brake "mustang decal" from American Muscle. The 3rd brake mustang decal was a challenge to get off the paper.
Overall, I think your tint looks great!
