sigh... not much interest in the market for the TSX yet. Maybe the Dazz, H&R, and MarineTSX's cars will get more publicity for 05?

If there is enough interest in getting these I will get them made for you. We do a lot of other makes and models with colored films such as yellow fogs and smoked tail light films. We are just breaking into the Acura market so if the interest is there we will deliver.

Let us know

I think it would look mighty nice on a black tsx, if there were blacked out tailights and lower bumper reflectors i would be very interested in them.

Im pretty sure the Dazz tsx's taillights are just a smoke spray. It comes in a small aerosol can and you spray it onto ur taillights. More coats if you want it darker. Ive seen the dazz tsx up close and i dont quite remember if it was the spray but im pretty sure it is.

i know someone who did it on an old civic it didnt look too bad. I think it would look good on the tsx, just have to try it. So if someone does let me know how it goes.

This might be a better way to do it. Liek some sort of window tint process but on the tail lights

Exactly what we would do. The film has an adhesive backing on it. I dont have any pictures of the new lighter tint we just got in, but here is what they would like installed but lighter. Sorry for the type of car in advance. If there is enough interest we would be willing to produce pre-cut kits for the TSX and offer a GB price. Let us know if there is some interest here and we will see what we can do.

We just got in a lighter tint that we installed today. Once we get some pictures taken and installed we will post them up. It is 15% tint versus the 35% up there

Here are the pictures of the smoked tail lights installed. The film on the driver's side is the old 35% smoked film. The Passenger side is the new lighter 15% smoked film.










As you can see during day light there is a difference in the films, but at night youare hard pressed to see a difference. I will say it again if there is enough interest in producing a pre-cut for the TSX smoked taillight we will do what we can to produce one as quickly as we can.

Price will be somewhere in the $50 range. We wouldnt have a final price until we actually figure out how much material it takes.

Let us know if you have any questions

yes you can remove it at any time you so choose. It is not reusable though.

You can either buy bulk from us and do it yourself or wait for pre-cut. This is not window tint. It is a high impact resistant plastic film that is tinted. People use it for the frent end to prevent breakage or pitting of the lights.

If you want bulk just measure the tail light and we can get you a price

Update, Due to the holidays and the scheduling being limited for patterning. We are not going to be able to get the smoked tail lights out as quickly as I had hoped. Looks like it will be next year before they are ready. The good news is next year is not tha far away.

Updates to come

Happy Holidays
