What is it about? It's a 3M tail light tint kit from rockblocker (vender) on this site. Go to the group buy section on here, and look for CL tail light tint. It's the shit, I still have yet to put mine on. Debadging first

It comes with 2 Pre-Cut film pieces, which already have special adhesive on it... Instructions and a squeegee... DEFINTALY WORTH THE MONEY... and if u want to get technical it protects your taillights, which I don’t think, anyone cares about... LOOKS MINT!!! and ROCKBLOCKER is the man to buy it from

Plus the adhesive wouldn't be as good, and it wouldn't be cut to the exact size and angles of your tail light, these are made specifically for your tail lights.

Can it be taken off? Like if you didn't like it or you wanted to go back to stock?


And do they have tint for the front turn signals also?

At night you really cant even tell they are on(the tints i mean)... During the day its a little dimmer but you have your 3rd brake light do all the work....

the darker one is close (correct me if im wrong) in cali you need something to reflect the color red.. the dark tint on the tails dont really have reflection of the color red.. most people say the lighter shade passes but i got enough a cop can get me for im afraid to risk it

Let me correct this statement for you. 35% is the DARKER one.

20% is the standard and lighter version.

This is not like window tint in terms of percentages. Got a call today from a customer who called pulled over for one headlight in blue and the other not. The cop didnt say a word about the smoked tail light kit in 35%

For legality of state laws contact your local State Patrol office.

Here in AZ it is 500ft you need to see red at night. No problem with 20%

BTW, We took the pics of our products online and created a gallery of what kits so others can see. Hopefully those that dont mind that we used your pics. Some have emailed us them directly.

Thanks

Right Right, thanks, sorry I worked like 20 hours of overtime in the last couple days, meant to say 20% the lighter one, johnny 5.0 didn't even mention it to me :cop: I get compliments on it all the time too
