hey

I was wondering how to get my tail lights tinted on my EG.. I've seen some where the quality was totally shit and some that looked pro.

what i meant by shit is it turned out very "smokey, matte black" or whatever
and what i meant by pro is it turned out very glossy and trasparent..

thanks.

Get the film tint, specifically made for tail lights.
Check out this thread. Hopefully someone posted pricing: http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...ghlight=smoked

you could try covering your tail light with a pair of stockings lol looks good and easy to remove

Its how u spray it that gives a good finish..

take off the tails, give it a good 1200+wetsand, wax n grease remover, hten give it some light sprays with the tint like 1 layer, then if ur using the K&H brand clear, do one layer nice n thick
