Well i have a 2003 tl-s satin silver to give u guys a good idea and iam lookin to spiff up the tailights by smoking them out BUT iam not sure if i should get them painted for 50$ or should i jus buy the tint film that goes over the actual light. However i want the reverse and turnsignals left exposed and it seems like the only way i can do this is by getting it painted OR applying the tint and then carefully razor blading it out iam not sure about that with my sketchy hands. Anyways if u guys can give me ur opnion i would greatly appreciate it

 

i have mine painted and i did it all for not even $12 (cost of can) everything is blacked out and it looks good also got a ssm tl-s

 

You can apply the tint and draw a line with a pencil or chalk pen then remove and cut it.

 

Yea i like both ideas thanks guys only problem with painting them is that i here that black out paint fades over some months to a yr 4rm a friend of mines that actually used it however i think i'll jus take the safe route and by dat tint film hopefully it'll come out good will post pics when done.

 

i had mine for about 8-9 months now and i buffed my car (tail light too) (no clear coat on them) they've been threw some rough winter days and some sunny days and not a sign of fading, scratches, or chips
