red out?

red out?

anyone know what kind of car paint is best to red out the amber color on the 8th gen tailights?

looks like you haven't had time to fully redo your lights yet huh. i can still see the outline

www.racinglab.com get those vans spray paints theyre pretty good

None. Use red vinyl instead.

where did you get the red vinyl except ebay?

smoke it like me, haha

^^ Did you use tint or smoke spray?

tint, its like the 35% dark film tints that i bought on ebay<br />

they also sell the super dark ones..which i also have a pair<br />
if anyone wants it i'll sell it

can you do me a favor and take a pic of it at night with brake lights on?

always been curious but i didnt want my car's tails to be dangerously dimmed at night.

like your signature? lol
maybe i'll do it tomorrow

but if ur wondering, the light is still pretty visible, and i dont even have LEDs on yet, so dont worry about it

Here's a question for those more knowledgeable about vinyl tint. Is it alright to lay vinyl over vinyl? I'm just worried a little about light output and the durability of double coated vinyl.

i have no clue but heres more pics

before:

after:


PS:
i only tinted out the outer corner tailights, not the trunk, cuz when i bought the trunk ones, it was already dark
in reality, both colors matches out better, the picture doesnt really justify

i tinted mines too

In your sig and the higher res pic, the inners look tinted too since I can't see any pink from the clear backup light. Well thanks for taking before and after pics. It's still too dark looking for me, so I'm not going to fully tint them after all. I might just tint the round back up light sections and leave everything else red.

sadly, they are pinkish in real life ]=

I see. Well, I'm going to play around with red and 35% tint for the best looking combination.

sorry i didnt take a pic anytime soon but i just took one a few minutes ago (i putted on my LEDs today, they are just regular LEDs, not those hi-power ones or whatever u call them), in my garage (with my garage lights turned off, so all the lights you see in the picture comes out from my front and rear signals on when i turned on the emergency lights) sorry i couldnt get a pic for the break lights pic cuz i was by myself, but this should do justice, the brake lights are just as bright in case ur wondering

lol so this summer i tried to apply my own window tint, and that didn't wort so well so i wound up using it on my lights. MINUS THE CORNERS which caused bad wrinkles, it looked nice from 10 feet = ). I even did it on the front lamps, it looked good since it wasn't that dark. I eventually took it off because of the bad wrinkles and in fear of being called a ricer. (

I just wanted to buy some plastic smoked covers though for the tail lamps.

How Much

DID those LEDs cost you? for all 4 bubs
