I know its insane. Its maybe a 2 hour job. I cannot see paying that much which is how we got into doing it. Our rates are negotiable and way more affordable

I paid 12.99 for the sheet of tint and it took me 25 min TOPS for both tails.

eyelids done in gloss black.



side of tails wrapped in gloss black/ back smoked





Im not selling a service. Just letting you know it can be done for under $20 if your any bit inclined to do it yourself.

I do them for 50 a light you tell me how dark you want them and I can get it done for you. thats a fair price anything more and you are paying to much.

using vinyl looks shitty IMO and it can lift and bubble and gives the light a Hazy look, now if you are to go with the Paint it looks much much better, and you can make it as light or dark as you want, unlike the tint! GO with Hellfire studios you will not be disappointed!

^i wouldve liked to have them painted but i was worried about the permanence factor. With my vinyl, i can take it off whenever i want.

Then they must have been totally blacked out, and ANY modification to your vehicle can affect the resale value for better or worse, just depends on what the next owner is looking for.
But I have compared both tinted and painted lights side by side, and the painted ones last longer and look a lot better, without crumples and bubbles and defects in the film.


But yes it is more perminate well it would have to be sanded down, and re cleared but i believe you can get the light back to normal with a little effort.
