Default Thoughts on tail light tint....

We will make this a "dual stage" question.

I don't like the look of TT tails that much, I don't like the squished circles inside, so I want to "hide" them somewhat.

I have an aviator TT with all the 3.2 gear. Spoiler and valance... so I think the darker tails will tie all that together well.


My second thing is, if I don't tint the tails, my tails are sort-of hazy. Any product that will shine them up like new, if I decide not to tint them...

Either way I should really clean them up before I tint them anyway... it should stick better if they are smooth.


NOW, post pictures of tinted tails on TTs and the best place to order film from.

Can't wait for the replies. Wooo hooo

Default Well... you can use Plexus to polish them up....

Or I ordered a can of VHT Night Shades to tint mine. Should receive it next week.
