Tail Light Tint Film
Ever wonder how other drivers have such nice looking tail lights on their cars or trucks? Many use tail light covers to get the euro or custom look they want to give their vehicle a real sporty look. If you have looked around before for tail light covers, you may have found that there are many options available, but the pricing can be somewhat prohibitive to those who don't want to spend lots of money for a certain look on their vehicle.
An alternative to the pricier tail light covers is to get tail light tint film. This is a very easy to install item that can be custom made for your vehicle and is usually a real bargain when looking to improve or customize the look of your vehicle. Tail light tint film is similar to window tinting except it is made to allow your brake and tail lights to show through, an important safety concern. When your tail lights are off, the tail light tint film can make the housing for the lights look black as if they were painted. You can find tail light tint film in other colors too, getting a color that either matches the paint job on your car or complements it well, such as having snowy white tint film on your tail lights with a baby blue paint job.
Tail light tint film can also come with a chrome coloring, making your tail light lenses look shiny and really stick out. This can provide a look that makes your car really stand out and grabs the attention you want for your vehicle from those who see you out on the road or sitting in a parking lot. Chrome coloring for tail light tint film can be a bit more expensive than normal flat tint film, but it still should fall well below getting a comparable look from replacement tail light covers.
If you really want a unique look for your vehicle, tail light tint film can also be purchased with designs on it. The designs can be cut out of the tint film or can be created through the use of different colors on the same piece of tail light tint film. There are many premade designs available from online stores and some of them will allow you to submit your specifications or design template and make custom ones just for you. While this can get even more expensive than lesser options, you still should find that to get a comparable look from tail light covers would be much more expensive than using tail light tint film with a design on it. Tint film for your tail lights can be made so that, when the brake lights come on, the design that is cut out will let the light through. If you wanted, for instance, a dragon design for your tail light tint film, you could have it made so that the image of the dragon would light up from your brake lights, creating a customized look for your car that you aren't likely to see very often.
One of the most appealing aspects of using tail light tint film instead of replacement tail light covers is that the price and ease of install create an opportunity to frequently change the look of your car without a lot of expense or time invested. Even if you aren't looking for something really custom, simple tail light tint films can be found at an online store and easily installed by just about anyone with a little time to spare.
One thing you might want to consider before getting tail light tint film for your vehicle is whether local laws prohibit it. Typically there aren’t any restrictions as long as the lights are visible when turned on. Stronger restrictions are usually reserved for the use of headlight tint film or covers. Make sure you check to see if there are any restrictions about what types of tail light tint film you can use in your state or country before making a purchase. If there are restrictions, sometimes they will restrict a certain type of tint film, such as the use of chrome or a certain intensity of darkness that still leaves you able to get other types of tail light tint film to customize your vehicle and give it a unique look.
