Tails tinting

st4cy · 12-13-2007, 05:05 AM

Does anyone know of a place in the Carolinas that would tint taillights? If you guys didn't do them yourselves, where did you have them done?

If your not comfortable with doing it yourself, any local body shop should be able to do it in a day or two.

yea should be bout a day and be no more then 75 i would think... just go into a few and ask if they will be painting a black car soon and if they are, ask if they can mix some of the paint with reducer and spray them for u.

Did it myself, mine turned out great and i had no real experience painting, just detailed instrustions and good supplies.

I think if it was done professionally it would most likely yield a nicer product tho, mostly cause the clear coat used is better quality out of a spray gun then a rattle can.

I've bought the stuff to do it myself, it's just that I won't be able to get to it until another month or so at the least. Every shop around here looks at me like I'm insane.

well prolly because you CAN get pulled over if they are too dark.
