you use window tint from the outside?

are you out of your mind?



I sold window tint, I would DEFINITLY not recommend putting it

on the outside of tailights, one light scratch from washing the car

and they will be done, once the edge of the tint lifts it will be

done, I cant even imagine what ice would end up doing to them.



people can get thier whole cars tinted for $100, you want

$50 to do a set of lights on your work bench, and you want people

to pay to ship them to you as well?



the correct way for someone to do this mod is so incredibly easy

and inexpensive, if your going to offer a service, at least be realistic

about it

Tint from the outside...hmmm not the brightest idea. Maybe from the interior as stated before. I believe I could blow window tint off with the garden hose...

your tails look sharp, why pay 50 to have a half *** job? I do believe I would go with the paint option from inside the lens.

You will have to ask rob, whatever he did it was done from the inside.

He sprayed them. I had smoked lenses on my TII and I never want anything else. You could still see the brake lights just fine at any time of day, and they look 10X better than stock.
