I wouldn't recommend them. They can fall off, people can peel them off, and you can see the edges. Use VHT Niteshades to tint them.

Tint 1/2 of the tail light.... leave other half untinted... looks much nicer than PURE black

advance auto parts keep NITESHADES in stock...i did the precut tail light film and it was a waste of money. they looked good til a damn cop pulled me over and peeled half of it back! smh it was never the same EVEN THOUGH they claim it can be removed and re-applied.

My local one doesn't. It depends on the store. I had to order it online.



Oh, and OP, if you go real dark, I recommend getting some red LED 1156 bulbs from superbrightleds.com. I bought the $35 a piece "Luxeon" bulbs from there, just to make sure they were bright enough. You probably don't need to spend $70 on bulbs like I did, but I really wanted to make sure that my lights were still visible. They have less expensive versions (idk, $10 a bulb?). I would go with the 2nd-to-least expensive ones they have. Don't buy from eBay, the sellers there usually have cheap Hong Kong LEDs that burn out in a month.
