So instead of buying from BlueBat, can i just take my car to a tint shop and do the same thing for my tail lights? i'm only asking cuz i tried tinting something before.. and i totally sucked at it. got air bubbles everywhere. So i'm not gonna even attempt to do BlueBat's overlays myself.

 

well.. bluebat is in san diego.... could always swing by his house?

but i think some tint shops might do it.... but most likely no... they would have to have material which i doubt they have around... unless you buy from bat and then have them do it..

 

No. My tinter was explaining to me that plastic is too porous and releases gas when it is heated by long periods in the sun. This would make the tint bubble up.

 

Yes, a tint shop can do it, provided that they can get the correct material. The stuff BluBat uses isn't window tint, it's essentially a tinted film of clear-bra material

 

its regular tint material but bat adds alittle bit of his magic to it and yeah.. it turns into bat tint. lol

(sorry, i'm bored)

 

Some tint shops might be able to put on somebody's kit, but using window tint on the taillight is not going to work too well.

We use a much thicker and stronger material designed fr lighting protection (not sign vinyl). It is easier to work with (less delicate) and DIY friendly.

Here is how they go on a tC taillight

has anyone checked out this website: rvinyl.com? does anyone know how their quality is on their smoke vinyl? thanks. i'm asking because you can buy a whole role for 18 bucks. I'm trying to smoke the upper half of my TYC's, and I just wanna mess around to see how they would look.

 

bat has some good stuff - I would just go with what he has. I have a tutorial below this post.

 

Sign vinyl is super cheap. If all you want to do is an experiment, just ask for some scraps at a sign shop. They will probably just give you some.

 

instead of vinyl or a tint shop...maybe try http://www.jonstintedtails.com/

 

I have vinyl if you need some . Email me.
