i want to smoke my tail lights, and with all this talk about tinting, rather than getting an overlay, i watned to know if there was anyone around the area experienced that is willing to do it to my car. i want my tails, rear turn signals, and front amber corners all smoked/tinted. i live in orange county (irvine). anyone willing, just tell me what to buy, and then we'll meet up and you can do the install (experienced of course). PM me and we can figure the rest out later....$$ of course. (dont try to rip me off tho )

thank youu

 

PM Bubble. he was willing to do it and i think he may live near you.

 

he doesnt, hes norcal :[

anyone????

 

do it yourself pussie. Get some tint spray!

 

send it via charter bus to me (they will charge you like $10-$15). You send in the morning, i'll get it around 4pm. for $100, i'll tint the tail light only and send it back to you.

If you need other part, i can do for you too (more money) You will take your part out and put it back by yourself.

 

lol, ya and hwat should i do with no lights for a day (or two?) hahaa..some1 localllllll

 

Bring it to any bodyshop and supply them with VHT Shade tint can. Buy about 4 or 5 of them.

 

oh....good idea..ill call around....thanks!

 

hav you had any trouble from the cops with ur tinted lights??

 

i did my old tail lights and a couple of my friends cars. granted they were all BMW's but im willing to help you ive done a great job every time ive done them. jus a thought

 

no. OR not yet. hehe

 

Oh and ill do it for free too (if you pay for the can, 26$ a can or around there, you'll probably need two but only use one and a half) cause im thinkinng of doing mine also so its all good.... p.s. i live near encinitas/solana beach

 

i don't know how different between BMW and our Z but just a head up for you (if you help him): the turn signals, and front amber corners are the 2 fark up part in the car. You will need to mist spray them = more tin can.

 

hey man...how far are you from irvine? and how old are you? appreciate the reply..... =]

 

yeah but he had only said taillights, so in that case we'll just figure it out and see what he says. i used one and a half on taillights, headlights, fogs, corners and side markers, and they werent light tint either, pitch black and glossy. but yeah it is a different car.

 

oh no i do want the turn signals and the ambar part toooooo

 

those 2 parts, when you spray straight to it, it will lift up. So spray from far way, one layer then wait then mist spray again. A long process.

 

thanks for the advice man, i may be a newb to this forum but not to tinting taillights, ive seen many people do a Z's but ive only done BMW's myself

 

You can definitely DIY.

^^^ DIY if your experienced. I tried with Bat's Overlays and really messed it up. So I had a shop do it. I would like to get the paint done though because the overlays offer a dull look, and I want that nice glossy look.
