has anybody tinted the turn signal on the 08 mirror and if so where did you buy the film?

 

I have thought about it but never did it. The easiest way is vht nite shade.

 

I thought about slapping some yellow over it a few times...never tried though. I sorta like the yellow with silver.

 

Personally, I think the car looks awesome in stock form.

 

It's better to smoked it. Kinda hard with tint since it curved a lot.

Here's mine smoked

 

Took me about an hour to do one of mine because of the curve. It just takes patience.

 

Looks good. Matches up nicely with the rims.

 

those that have done this...did you just use a heat source and somehting to smooth out the bubbles?

 

I used my wife's hair dryer, and an old credit card with a soft cloth wrapped around it to squeege out the bubbles. The card itself with scratch the vinyl. It will take awhile but after you get it the right size, just cut the excess with an exacto knife.

 

thanks man one more question.
what did you used as the lubricant...soapy water, just water or what?
thanks

 

Yes. I went to the dollar store and bought a spray bottle and dish soap (without bleach/bleach alternative). I used 1 table spoon of dish soap and mixed the rest with water in the sprayer.

One recommendation, take your time and it takes a lot of patience if this is your first time working with wet vinyl. Good luck and post some pics when you get a chance!

 

Good idea.. I have the 08 TLS in CBP and just got the windows tinted. I'm going after the signal lens next. Looks great!

 

damn donnieb83 yours look sweet!i think it looks best on NBP and CBP

 

^^^Haha...thanks! Ebay has these in all colors and shades. I've seen a member with yellow on NBP. Looks pretty good...

 

I'm wondering if it would be illegal in Cali to put a yellow shade over the turn signal?

 

You can also use Windex.

 

Search Rvinyl on ebay. I've bought their products many times before and they are good.
