Where can I buy taillight tint for my 370Z?
 
I have a pearl white 370Z and think it would look good with tinted taillights. But I have looked and nobody sells them, lamin-x has only headlight tint for now, and bluebatmobile seemed to have dissapered from the site or is really hard to get ahold of. I thought about going to a tint shop but rather buy something already designed for the 370Z first, anybody have any info that can help me?

If you want to go the best rout. Get them spray tinted. Its not reversible. But it offers the best look. Spray tint to vinyl tint is the same as real carbon fiber to autozone sticker carbon fiber. Well all sticker carbon fiber is the same in the end... Anywas thats my IMO.

Any body shop should be able to spray tint them the right way. Its just a matter of wet sanding with 2000 grit and shooting them with a tinted clear coat.

did you try to send bluebat an e-mail? While he may not be active on the site, I have had very good response time in the past via e-mail.

Try going to a local Aftermarket part dealer and ask them for a Vinyl shop..
Aftermarket part dealers should have a source for these kinda things.

I have a set going for cheap if u want them.

NewYorkJon34 08-31-2009 10:25 AM

^cool, what kind are they?

NewYorkJon34 08-31-2009 10:31 AM

I sent bat an e-mail, hopefully he gets back to me. Does anybody have pics of a 370z with the spray on tint?

bats one arent that good..... it's much easier to go to a tint shop and have it done...
you'll see a difference

bullitt5897 08-31-2009 10:43 AM

They are 20% tint full cover. Bats overlays are nice! I am having custom work done on my car so I decided to go a different route. You will be pleased with the overlays.

nogoodname 08-31-2009 10:50 AM

if you want cut outs and stuff....get bluebats.

if you want a full cover, just get it done by a shop and use their material.

i tried bluebats overlays, it was pretty shitty.... not as easy to wrap the corners at all...especially when you only have like 1/2 inch extra material to pull on... got fed up and went to a shop.......lol

Thats beautiful, what % is that? Did u go to a tint shop for that, I'll prob just go to the guys that tinted my windows, they did a pretty good job & were nice guys.

nogoodname 08-31-2009 12:59 PM

i dunno what % it is, it was just the thickest and darkest film they had...
it was 2-3 mm thick......lol


the chrome piece overlay on the trunk is the same film used for the tail lights

NewYorkJon34 08-31-2009 05:18 PM
