    Hi,

    I'm planing on tinting my tail lights.

    I have used VHT Night Shades on other cars with success. It can look blotchy in certain areas. On the front side markers I don't like the look when the lights are on because the single light bulb just illuminates a small area and the reflector looks unevenly tinted. With lights off it looks fine.

    Does film work on the tail lights? Do you use one single piece or do you use two per light? One around the outside and another on the vertical area?

    Please post pictures if you have pictures of any of these two options.

    Thank you.

    My black car came with them but I made them ( Ferrari West Palm ) replace them with the originals.
