I will tint your taillights!!

Haha, hey guys,

After posting up online and getting some good feedback, I wanted to test the waters as to how interested you guys would be in having me tint your taillights.

My thread Minor mods from this afternoon, got bored at work... shows some pictures and comments.










PRICE: $100 plus actual shipping.

I'm trying to figure out how it would be best for you guys, probably a core replacement to minimize the downtime.

I'll probably go ahead and charge $250 and I'll ship out the tinted lights to you and then refund $150 minus the shipping cost back to you, when I get your OEM taillights. This will ensure your truck has no amount of time where you can't drive it. So final price is $100 plus shipping.


Anyone interested?

I may be interested, but it seems a little dark. Is there a possibility of getting it lighter than that?

Yep, I can do whatever shade of darkness you would like, and I can also do any style you'd like as well (all dark, red-black, clear-black, etc). It;s a pretty customized job, so whatver you would like, I can do.

I also clearcoat the lights when i'm all done so they're protected in the same way your factory paint is protected.

Any night pics so we can see how bright the lights are.

I am interested in this...would you consider doing headlights as well? There was a guy on eBay doing this but wouldn't do headlights; I'm planning on running HIDs so it won't be too dim, but I'm interested in seeing night pics as well as it might be pretty dark.

Does this price of $100/250 include the third brake light? What would you charge to do both headlights and taillights, $200? I would probably buy my own and ship them to you, but it depends on your prices. Thanks.

I would be interested. Since I have a flareside I would probably just buy another set of tails to send you, or maybe you could just buy them and have them shipped directly to you and them I could just pay you for everything all at once. What would you think of doing that?

I haven't done the headlights yet, but I am considering doing mine soon... but as of right now, I don't have enough experience with them yet to put anyone's money on the line just yet.

The price does not include the third brake light, but I'll tell you what, to get this ball rolling and gain some reputation, I'll do the first three orders including the third brake light for free if you'd like.

Yea, I can order the set, or you can order the set, and have them shipped directly to me and I'll take care of the rest for you and just ship them out right when they're done.

So keeping in mind that mine are VERY dark, I took pictures just now. I'm not going to lie though, the pictures made the lights look brighter than they really are. Honestly, the lights are fully visible, though. Just keep in mind that these pictures (the most accurate that I can take) make them seem brighter.

Lights look good.

Kinda dim at night but they have a nice shine. Any shots without the flash from a decent distance? Many people here live in areas where they will get harassed for being too dark so they will probably want them lighter.

I did the same for some buddies lights and they came out great! Thought of doing the same thing here, but you may want to check with a mod because I think you have to become a vendor to do bulk sales. Dont want them to shut down your ad pre-maturely as lots of people will probably want this done.

The second picture that I posted is without a flash and it's from about 20ft back, just slightly zoomed in. Unfortunately, after playing around with the camera settings, that was the best that I could come up with.

As for the bulk sales, I hope the mods see that I am not selling anything, but rather providing a service. I am just a member who has a good idea and a few people think I did a good job, so I figured maybe I can help out some of the members and make a buck along the way.

Thanks guys! I am seeing a lot of interest and I have been communicating with members who would like me to take care of their taillights, so you all will be seeing some sweet taillights shortly!

you would be suprised how much light actually comes though. I went pretty dark on my truck and went straight black on my friends mustang and at night time with the lights on you can barily tell it has been tinted.

After doing this mod myself, buying the supplies needed, the time to do it, then re-do it in my case makes your price a no brainer. A great deal if you ask me for a fair price. Good luck!
