I just bought black 06 and I wanna tint my taillights somewhere in the future.

I kinda got how to do it.

1. you take out the taillights and sand it.
2. put a spray on the surface.
3. sand it again to get rid of scratchs.

I only know upto these steps.

what do you do after these steps to make it shine like non other?
put wax? (duh)

Tanks for reading!

 

you don't get a shiny look from overlay. This is how it look after tinting.

 

cost twice as the cost of overlay but looks MUCH BETTER.

 

Tinting or overlay, difference?

 

overlay: just a 3m film. You can take them off. Doesn't have the shiny look.

 

Thats HOT! Who does this and how much?

 

hey bubblez overlay or tinting...? my friend said i should go with the overlay.
i also want to do my turn signalz any idea on getting them out as well without removing the bumper...?

 

around $100.

 

i used overlay from Bat and the look very dull. If you tint, it's more shiny.



If more people want to do this, i can get some GB.

 

id rather be able to take it off, than have it shiney though. so i went with the bats overlays

 

I'm definately interested!

 

anyone else? i need at least 5

 

hey ZBenny your tailights looks good...saw a pic of your Z...how did you get to your turn sig? do you have to remove the rear bumper....? are the overlay not shiny...do they have a laffy taffy look to it?
hey bubble i'm interested but i'm still torn between overlay or tint <shrug>

 

overlay FOR SURE is dull looking. Here is my light with overlay



compare to this tint:

 

the 2nd pic...is the a peice that goes on top of your tail lights or do they tint the tail light itself...?

 

they will tint the light unit. No overlay.

 

so if you tint it, it's shiny but you can't take it out,
and if you overlay it, it doesn't look good as tinting but you can take it off?

 

Details please.
