Default Tinted Head and Tail Lamps!

We are the ONLY shop in the entire Tampa Bay Area offering this particular product-ask around! Once again, MCOR Automotive is the first to offer the public what they have been asking for. We now have the complete line of shaded 17mil. soft pliable PVC film specifically for headlamps, taillamps, badges, dome lamps, etc. We have covered instrument clusters, custom plexiglass (including motorcycle windshields and helmet lenses) and any head or tail lamp you have. It comes in both lighter and darker shades (like window tint), light blue, and yellow (great for fog lamps and tuner style imports). Other colors are available as a special order.

It is also a great cheap alternative for crappy yellowed headlamp replacement for a fraction of the cost. Besides the incredible cosmetic benefits, it is also a catalyst. It is made to protect your lenses from rock chips and cracks! This is a one-off custom look that currently NO OTHER SHOP can offer you! We are extending special pricing for the month of March for our loyal TR members only.

Don't get this confused with lame attempts at tinting the lenses. Regular window tint is not made to be applied on the exterior of anything and will quickly degrade. It is only about 3 mils and also provides NO protection. This film substrate is 17 mils thick and has the consistancey of taffy. So it stretches and conforms to ANY curve there is (under the skillful hands of our tint/clearshield installers and their steamers).

This also isn't that cheap "rattle can" spray paint finish. That just does not provide the consistent finish that this material does. That method also cannot take normal road rash and is quickly damaged by road debris. This film is self-anealing. This means that if it gets popped with a rock, the mark will dissappear within days-self-healing. No tint or spray job can claim to do that-period (we have tried it all over the years).

The normal retail price will be $150 for a pair of lights. But, we re offering a pair of lights tinted for only $100. Complete headlamp and foglamp or headlamp and tail lamp special for only $175! We are offering this service 6 days a week Monday thru Saturday currently. This special only will last until we get through the first 100 foot roll of each shade/color. It can be done while you wait-normal process is only about 30 minutes a pair! Call Matt/MCOR at (813) 362-5454...









Also-tint vehicle badges, clusters, dome lamps, reflectors, etc:

You guys have come up with some interesting things to wrap! As requested, I am building a portfolio of the different cars we have worked on from TR members for each area of business we cover. I think the portfolio of the headlights/taillights/etc. will be one of the most interesting.

I still am keeping the special for TR members so be sure to mention it when you call for the appointment. There has been some confusion when the invoice came due because some didn't identify themselves as TR members when they called in/came in for the work.

Should have a nice group of pics by then end of March. Will post up around then. Thanks again for the support!

Another TR member. This one had a 2007 Camry and two different shops had attempted to wrap the lamps. Both failed miserably (and scratched the lamps in the process). We were able to buff out the scratches, and successfully wrapped ALL lamps completely off the car. All compound and 90 degree curves were nailed flawlessly with zero wrinkles. Customer couldn't believe it!

Thanks for the props! I got a lot of calls after posting that one today. Seems quite a few TR members have been through some bad attempts at this elseware. CALL US FIRST! I am the ONLY shop with web verifiable proof that we can handle these complex lights.

Thanks again for all the support fellow TR members!

Depends on how many and if they need to be removed to be done (not usually) and complexity. Badges like the Ford oval are cheap. Give us a call tomorrow or post pics of the ones you want done...

As long as we can do them all on the truck (which is usually the case), we typically charge $10 per badge. But, since you are a TR member we will do it for $50 total. It will take about an hour (figure on an additional hour to let them sit in the sun to settle and work out any fingers or bubbles while curing).

I can fit it in this week. We will take completed pics and post them here. Thanks for your interest!
