Light smoke tail light tint and fog tint

blackdragon12 · 11-11-2014, 10:27 AM

So I am going to be tinting my tail lights, very slightly. I absolutely love @mashimarho's tail lights, and he did his at 50%.

I came across these and was wondering what % these are (any idea?). It is the #1 - light black: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/30cm-...828970747.html

Also, another thing I wanted to get done was tinting the fog lights orange. I absolutely love the orange/black look on my car, and want to keep that theme going. Has anyone tinted their fogs before? Any advice/tips on getting it done properly?

Oh, I will be doing all of this myself too so any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I would just use Laminex, they have varying degrees of smoke and yellow, plus they are precut for your headlights, tails, and fogs...

It is a thicker material that also acts to protect you lenses from road debris damage and hazing

I have the light smoke on my fogs, clear on my headlights and LCI tails.

I looked up Laminex but it costs $74.90+ shipping. Figured for the links off AliExpress, I can take a little more time and cut it out myself for under $10 for both. Was just wondering if anyone had done it themselves...

BTW, got a picture?
