i think that you're better off with black-lines but try this thread.http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ke+tail+lights

You could DIY it with Lamin-X film, that's what I did. The film cost me about $65, while the labor.. 30 minutes of my own labor $0.

I want to custom tint the tail light (leave the clear portion untinted) though, so that has to be a prof job

Chris I might do the same one day. Blacklined and smoked ftw

cgillio · 04-21-2008, 09:11 PM

I would like to get a somewhat light tint on the tails. nothing too dark

Kev · 04-21-2008, 09:14 PM

Have you seen this?

That's what I want to achieve. It's quite subtle and not over done IMHO.

cgillio · 04-21-2008, 09:23 PM

Thats the darkness i want. But i would like to cover the entire light

Kev · 04-21-2008, 10:09 PM

That would look sick on the Monaco Blue coz it's of a darker shade, for AW, I prefer leaving the clear part untinted for added constrast.

hmm no not really in MA. I'm doing my cosmetics with my DSG buddies but I would see if SIM (Sound In Motion) knows anyone or would do it.

You could do the Lamin-X and just trim it.
