I just got done tinting my lights and I just wanted some opinions. I only did 2 light coat on the tail lights and I think i should go darker. LMK what you guys think! Thanks

PS: My trunk is a lil crooked need to fix that..

 

Is that the elusive Jordan edition I30?

 

I think you need to clear coat them. The dull finish makes it look cheap.

I wouldnt go darker though.

Nice job. Quality work there.

 

How did you mask that? +1 on clear coat for a gloss finish.

 

Ok I added another coat today. I added some clear coat it looks better but still has a little dullness to it. Do I need to sand it and than add the clear coat? I masked it with brown tape and cut the outline with a razor. I'll upload new pics tomorrow.

 

Wet sand it, then clear coat, then polish the clear coat with something like Meguiar's ScratchX

 

looks good. anyway whats the process for spraying anyway? (that other thread is mine). I baught that AUG stuff from ebay, and everything is in japanese, i dont know whats the process.

Im just going to get some painters tape and cut it the way i want and spray light coats.

 

Looks like you gotta learn japanese.

 

i tinted mine with tinted vinyl. they sell kits on ebay, but I do vinyl work for a job, ive tried to use the kits on ppls cars before but its easier for me to pull it off the roll

 

iT'S m4d tYTe y0!

 

Did mine a few months back. Still looks awesome.

And +1 for black tint on a black car. Looks silly on most other colors.

 

looks good

 

You lights Looks sick!! I was also going got a light color tint but ended up darkening it. What did you use?? I'm going to try and wet sand it down today if I have time. Yea truu only certain color cars can pull it off.

 

Believe it or not, some guy on here just mailed me the precut tint pieces and I stuck them on. Used a spray bottle with water and my sister's blowdryer. Didn't charge me a cent either, but unfortunately I forget who it was.

I think you can actually get the stuff at Pep Boys or Autozone. I'd also try an arts/crafts store if the auto parts store don't have anything. You just need something that sticks with water (pre-glued, I guess) and is transluscent. (Also, needs to be somewhat pliable so you can stretch it with heat without tearing it.)

On your's though, I like that you left the blinkers/reverse lights clear. Looks nice that way.

 

Looks good bro!! check out mine in the sig ;]

 

I like that the clear part of the tails almost make it look like an extension of the chrome bar over the license plate. Looks really nice that way.

+1 if you remove the I30 letters

 

I was planning to do this with a roof overlay. But mines will be a very light tint.

I don't like them that dark though
