Hi All,

Just a quick question, would anyone know where I could possible pick up some tint vinyl's for my tail lights.

I'm planning to DIY it because its not that hard to do, I've done it before but the place where I used to get the vinyls from has closed <_<

I've tried everywhere, places like supercheap and all that don't seem to have it either, and I kind of want to avoid ordering them thru the net, so if anyone knows who sells them around melbourne, thanks in advance.

Cheers Guys

I know you didnt want to buy OS, but DecalFX or MetroDecal In the US are good, proper tint films, nice and flexible under a hot air gun . Even "red out" film for an all red taillight set up.

I just got some smoke out for the rear of the ZRE154.

Many years ago i tried using normal window tint and found it a PITA, didnt go around curves well even under heat.

From Metro Decals:

"Blue Film: 80% Light Transmission

Light Blue Film: 90% Light Transmission

Smoke (Dark) Film: 78% Light Transmission

Smoke (Light) Film: 92% Light Transmission

Yellow Film: 78% Light Transmission

Light Yellow Film: 90% Light Transmission

"

Not too bad prices either.

Just letting you all know, Metro Decals has great service and quick turnaround time. My items were shipped and arrived here in 4 days. :)

I think it was around AU$30 bucks postage.

I applied the tint to one rear ZRE152 light today, and didnt like it. Its not the films fault, just the pinkish reverse light and indicator lens made a weird brown with the tint film. Might try "red out" next time, see how that does. I dont think the pinkish lens will make the red go weird.
