Tinting My Tail Lights!!!
So here in a couple of minutes im about to tint my tail's. Since I have the reverse LED bulb, I want it to stand out. That's why im re-doing my tail's.

yeah, I had these things sitting in my room, and I was just waiting for a day off to just do all of these projects. And do you mean my floor mats?

Can you show me a website for vinyls that would be good to do this?

Well since you don't know my car, ill let that slide.

I already tinted my tails once before. I painted the 3rd brake tail and side markers. I just wanted to re do my reverse.

Size is 921.

If you buy them on superbrightleds.com, make sure you get the 4 bulb ones. Or anything lower. Anything higher than that, it won't fit.
